When culling images and rejecting using the "X" key, I then go to Photo> Delete Rejected Photos > Remove and the program becomes non-responsive. Close it and re-open and the removal has been done as requested. I have done the Pref reset to no avail. Any ideas?
 
Hi Williec, does the same happen if you filter for rejected photos and then remove them normally (e.g. not using the Delete Rejected Photos command)? What kind of drive is the catalog stored on?
 
If I filter for rejected photos I get a different error (see attached) . The cat is on the local hard drive, SATA type.

Ok, that's either a plug-in issue, or perhaps some kind of catalog corruption. First things first, try disabling all plug-ins and try that again.
 
Found 4 plugins that I never installed...Adobe Stock, Facebook, Nikon tethering (I shoot Canon) and one other. Disabled all and everything seems OK so far. Thanks for the tips.
 
BTW...I have been using LR since Beta .99 (pre-release review group) and have never seen this situation. Is this new? Were they installed and enabled with the 8.1 update? That is when the problems started. Just curious about how this occurred. Again, thanks for the help.
 
Adobe Stock, Facebook, Nikon & Canon tethering are all shipped with Lightroom, so they should be fine. The "one other" might have triggered it though.
 
The same happened to me only a few minutes ago. The only thing that has changed recently is an update to LR. Apart from that I made no changes and this has not happened to me before (I have had crashes but not when deleting files marked for deletion), despite working with LR on an almost daily basis.
