Adding to what @dj_paige wrote above. In your first post you wrote:   "I uploaded a bunch of photos in Dec 2024, did some preliminary edits on them and just came back to do some further adjustments."   Above dates (i.e. imported 1 March 2025, but uploaded/edited in December 2024) are contradictory. So, best check that you've not opened the wrong catalog ... View more

Note that AI based featuress reqiuire a compatible and fully functional GPU. While your meets the spec (barely) it's only providing accelerated support for the display not editing. The driver version shown in your System Info is also more than a year old. A more recent driver can be obtained at https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/776137/intel-7th-10th-gen-processor-graphics-windows.html ... View more

The purpose of saving to a second location is to create a backup copy of the original files (i.e. what comes off the camera/sd card). No adjustments are included, no renaming on import, etc.  ... View more

I forgot to mention that one of the reasons that the red dots appear is that the Remove tool has been used after the Masks tool. The correct order is Remove tool first, then Mask tool. The result of applying the tools in wrong order is obvious artefacts at area where the remove tool was applied. Again, if you don't see any artefacts, then best ignore the red dots. If there are artefacts, then use 'Update AI Settings' to fix. ... View more

There's been no update and very likely that nothing has changed. The problem is that the code used to check whether the AI edits need to be updated is not very good at present. Resetting won't help.   Best course of action is to check the photos. If they look as you expect/intend, then just ignore the red dots.   I dodn't know what you're trying to tell me with the screenshot ... View more

There was an API update to the Slideshow module late last year or early this year, which may explain why it worked for you in 2024.    Have you tried exporting the slideshow to video with the music disabled?    Are you combining still photos and videos into a single slideshow?   Have you tried resetting the LrC  preferences? If not, then try Methos 1 as set out in https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/help/reset-preferences.html   Can you provide any information on how others can try to reproduce the issue. For example, no mention of how many photos are in slideshow, the template used, the settings used in the Playback panel, etc.   ... View more

>  i hadn't been aware of the film strip showing the number of selected files.   You're screenshot from earlier today actually shows the relevant section of the Info bar.   I've read each of your posts at least three time and am still confused with how you're working, especially the way you're trying to integrate Windows Explorer into the process. There was a time, maybe still is, that the Windows version of LrC did not support drag and rop from Explorer. Anyway, I suspect  my confusion is shared by others, hence the lack of suggestions to resolve your issue. ... View more

Lr (cloud version) was released in October 2017. It has included editing tools, albeit initially not a comprehensive as Classic, since first launch.   More details of Lr (cloudy) version 1 at https://www.computer-darkroom.com/blog/2017/10/ ... View more

The crash log indicates that the crash is related to the GPU or more likely the GPU driver. Unfortunately, you haven't provided any info regarding your computer, etc. Therefore, please provide a copy of your System Info file. You can obtain same from the LrC Help > System Info menu item. When the associated dialog opens you'll see a Copy button at the top right corner. Use this button to capture the info, then paste into your next forum post. ... View more

> This would have been much easier to detect if LR would show the number of files selected, as every other file manager does.   The number of file selected is shown on the left side of the Info bar directly above the filmstrip (see attached screenshot).   It's also important to note that Lightroom Classic is not a File Manager, and never has been.          ...
