    Lightroom grinding to a halt! any help appreciated

    I'm using what was lightroom cc and is now lightroom classic. I use to have no problems until recently. I have seen some forums suggesting to have multiple catalogues and I'll probably give it a go just to see if it helps

    Does this corrupt memory cards?

    Does this corrupt memory cards?

    Whether he is right or wrong, to be on the safe side, I have stopped deleting in camera as memory is so cheap. Always use Sandisk SD cards and only one has got corrupted before and until know I always deleted in camera.
