Can't Remove Photos from 'All Synced Photographs' in Lightroom Classic

Hi Adobe Community,

I’m hoping for guidance on an issue preventing me from clearing cloud storage space after syncing photos to Lightroom Classic. Here’s my workflow:

  1. Import photos into Lightroom (cloud version).

  2. Let them sync to Lightroom Classic (LrC) via the cloud.

  3. After syncing, I use the “Remove from All Synced Photographs” option in LrC to free up Adobe Cloud storage.

This has worked until my recently. I imported hundreds of photos to Lightroom (cloud), synced them to LrC, and attempted to remove them from synced photos as usual. However, the photos remain stuck in “All Synced Photographs”, leaving my cloud storage full. With a trip to Poland approaching, I urgently need to resolve this to avoid hitting storage limits.

Questions:

  1. Has anyone else encountered this after recent updates?

  2. Are there known fixes?

Any advice would be invaluable! Thank you in advance.

Cheers,
