Help With a Couple of Lightroom Issues

There's a couple of issues I've been having with Lightroom recently, and I wonder if other UHH'ers are experiencing them, and especially, if they are aware of any fixes.

The first is specific to LR 7.2 - it didn't occur until I upgraded. I'm running on Windows 10, and, if someone thinks it would be useful, can later supply details about RAM, graphics card, processor, etc. etc. But, what has started to happen is that I'll edit a few photos, and then, when I move to the next photo, either in the film strip or in the grid view, the photo won't come up for editing. Other LR controls work, but the next photo just doesn't appear. I'm running two monitors, and use the second monitor for the Loupe view. When I click on the next photo, it immediately comes up in the Loupe view, but the edit panel remains grayed out. Deselecting the second monitor doesn't change anything, nor does turning off the graphic processor. Closing out LR and reopening it does help, for a while. Note that this doesn't occur all the time - LR is OK perhaps 80% of the time. If I wait long enough - several minutes, the selected photo sometimes comes up, but it's faster to re-start LR.

The second issue is older than LR 7.2. I was hoping that 7.2 would fix it, but it did not. Sometimes, perhaps 50% of the time, when I do a photo merge to create a panorama, when LR comes back, it changes the sort order from File Name to Custom Order. I like to stack the pano on top of the photos that made it up, so I have to re-sort back to File Name order in order to do so.

Are you experiencing either of these issues? Any fixes?

Does it happen with just one particular file?

I'm thinking it might just be one (or just a few) RAW file that is corrupted and that it comes up in the Loupe view because that is just the embedded preview that is not corrupted.

No,it's unrelated to a specific file.

I typically use Chrome, but it's not always open when the issues I've referenced occur.

Here is a link (courtesy of The Lightroom Queen) which apparently contains a fix for the first issue I mentioned in this post: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/issues-lightroom-classic-7-2.html
