Newest LR Crashes

[Jimmsp]

Lightroom Version Number

LR Classic 7.3

Operating System

1. Windows 10

I have now had two instances in the last 2 days in which LR classic 7.3 has crashed, or hung up ( a better description).

I cannot even come close to a guessing at a cause or even commonality.
In both cases I had been editing for a while, and had been passing files back and forth to Photoshop.
All was working smoothly and quickly. I also had Chrome running. And I left LR & PS running with no immediate issues. I was back and forth a lot.
When I returned at one point to LR, it was hung.

It seemed to occur (as I recall at least once) after I had left LR in an idle state, after exporting a file, followed by a upload of the same file to photo site.
And this was not necessarily the first and only time I did this.
Perhaps the only common thing was that PS had a tiff open that it had saved back into LR.

I had to use task manager stop LR.
LR restarted with no apparent loss of information.

I was doing nothing that I had not done in LR Classic 7.2

A minor irritation in the grand scheme of things.

Jimmsp,

Not the kind of message I enjoy reading. Have you tried doing any searches? Looked at the official Adobe forum for LR?

No I have not.
I am traveling tomorrow, so I might look on Sat.
I don't have anything specific to search for, such as "LR hangs up when I ...." , so I don't hold out much hope.
It would be of an info thing for Adobe.

This has happened to me as well since the update.

Were you also passing photos back and forth to Photoshop?

I had been, but about an hour before it crashed. I have also found that if the pc goes to sleep lightroom will not reopen on the PC waking.

I posted this info on the Adobe site. There I found numerous incidences of crashes. Nothing much in common, and on both Windows and on Macs.
