Hi all,
I'm troubleshooting a recent development on my Windows 10 machine and wondered if you might have any idea of what's happening. I've been searching around the Web for solutions but nothing is improving.
Specs:
Windows 10 Pro, 1903 (was happening on 1809 too)
LR Classic (just incrementally updated today, problem on both this and previous version)
Core i7 2.70GHz
32GB RAM
256GB SSD Boot drive (LR program, catalog & previews live here), 30% free space
2TB SATA internal secondary drive (all images live here), 60% free space
With security apps disabled, no other apps running, and as many things in the system tray turned off or disabled as I can, I've timed the opening of LR to 17 seconds. The app window opens quickly, but does not populate right away; I get a blue circle for 5-6 seconds while the app title bar says "Not Responding"; if I wait and do nothing, it will unfreeze eventually and from that moment on, it works fine. This happens whether I'm using the native laptop screen or when I'm hooked up to 2 external monitors via a Thunderbolt dock.
I've purged the Camera RAW cache (set to max of 50GB), and have a Previews.lrdata folder of 9.85GB in size. My LR catalog is 824MB, comprised of 21K images. I have no extra Presets loaded. I've been reviewing Adobe's article on Optimizing Performance and ran through the various suggestions. Does anyone have any other ideas to try? This PC has always been a performance beast for my intensive apps (LR, PS, DJ software) so I feel like this is something that should be able to be fixed. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
