So, my Mac completely crashed the other day (buggy Catalina, but that's a different topic) and I had to erase my disk and reinstall the entire system from scratch. This meant I also had to reinstall Lightroom Classic and Lightroom Cloudy. That's all fine and I had sufficient backups to do so.
The problem, though, is that now Lightroom Cloudy is stuck syncing at 4,039 photos. I let the program run for two nights without any improvement.
Now, this article recommends to select all photos and either delete them or set a flag or star rating. I am willing to do this if it will solve my problem, but I'd like to get a second opinion from you experts first. My main concern is, won't deleting the photos also delete them from the cloud, too? Setting a flag or star rating is not my preferred option since these photos have stars and flags assigned and I don't want to mess this up.
Any advice here?
Thanks,
Patrick
