This is not the first time Larry or others have reported this sort of issue 
with LR: I'm just glad I decided I couldn't work with it, and my PS, Bridge,

worked well over twenty years and half-a-dozen computers and external drives 
combinations.

Good luck sorting it out and maintaining a reliable  structure!
