If it's an installation problem it's up to Adobe's installer to get them right. and it does. otherwise hundreds of millions of users would not be able to use their software. Check the forums and find out how many users of a variety of Adobe apps are now complainining that Crash Reporter isn't working. Bearing in mind that you have to have a crash to find that out, there must be very many more who have the same problem but haven't found out yet. that doesn't mean what you think it means. |

You are the one assuming it is with Windows. I have said that some of the accounts I have read suggest that the problem is with incorrectly set file permissons, in which case the problem is not caused by Windows. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |

You are the one assuming it is with Windows. nope. i said it can be any of a number of things. nothing can be ruled out without extensive analysis, and by those who know what to look for (i.e., not you). this is best done by adobe & microsoft, who have the source code to their respective parts and a deep familiarity of what *should* happen. tl;dr - you're guessing. I have said that some of the accounts I have read suggest that the problem is with incorrectly set file permissons, in which case the problem is not caused by Windows. as i said before, apps that crash with incorrectly set permissions is a bug with the app, but the true problem is that windows gets into that situation. tl;dr you're treating the symptom, not the disease. |

wrote: My Lightroom Classic CC seems to have decided to give up printing. When I select Print it brings up the appropriate screen identifying the printer and the paper size and then a notice pops up which says something like: Adobe Photoshop Lightroom has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. As far as I know all my software is up to date. Is this just my problem or have other people also experienced it? W10 of course. Update - skipping all the twaddle which has emerged since the beginning of this thread: As you know, I eventually found that my problem of LR locking up (more accurate description than 'crashing) when selecting the PRINT module was overcome by creating a new empty catalog and then copying the contents of the old catalog into it. Adobe has been of no great help but neither have been my personal circumstances. Today I found I had two updates, one for PS and the other for LR. I have installed both and tried starting LR once again. Same result: LR comes up with PRINT selected and immediately locks up. Oh ****! Then I found it was starting on the old (corrupt?) catalog and that when I switched to the new copy catalog it all seems to work as it should. I am interested to note that the the Adobe Crash Reporter files CRWindowsClientServices.exe, a copy of which lies in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop and another copy in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Lightroom Classic have each been updated from early December 2017 to 6 Feb 2018 and 9 Feb 2018 respectively. I suspect my problems continue to be a work in progress. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |
