I'm glad you are happy. Be sure to turn off automatic updates in the Creative Cloud Application Manager. Otherwise, the next time Camera Raw is updated you will have to go through the process of reinstalling the older version. By turning off automatic updates that means it will necessitate you checking the application manager occasionally to update other programs that you DO wish to have updated.

And to add to what Jim said, IF you update Photoshop in the future, it will update ACR so you'll have to use the older (archived after downloaded) installer for 12.1 and run it again.

Thanks for reminding me, in the meantime I loaded an off beat converter, Contenta Coverter, whic is a bare bones program with a number of presests, and no sliders. It lighning fast but the processing is very limited. Am staying with the devil for now,

You are not contacting Adobe employees here. This is a user to user forum, we are other users like yourself. The remedy other users have resorted to has been to reinstall the older version of Camera Raw if the update has been unsatisfactory. IF you use Camera Raw in conjunction with Bridge, and Bridge has been updated, it will be necessary for bridge to be uninstalled and the former version of Bridge installed from the creative cloud application manager. Here is the link where you can download the previous version of Camera Raw:

Thank very much for interceding on my behalf.

The latest version of Raw had been working quite fine, but I never really liked the changes in the GUI.

I took you advice and it has cured my overall problem, the sliders work and the changes are quick to apply

Once again thanks

William
