Question

Denoise will not apply or update on raw files?

When I copied and pasted settings the denoise will not update when i try to adjust noise settings. I then removed the denoise feature by unchecking the box and now it will not reapply denoise and gives a failure error. I have made sure that I have plenty of memory, all updates are current, closed and restarted lightroom, even restarted my macbook.

    Try this. It appears to work for all who try it. If you download Camera Raw 18.3 from here (Mac) - https://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/photoshop/cameraraw/mac/18.x/CameraRaw_18_3.dmg

    Run the installer and DO NOT update in Creative Cloud - make sure auto updates are turned off before you start - until Lightroom Classic 15.4 is released.

    I tried his folder trick and it did not work. I am not downloading a random link from an account created just this month either. Need verification first.
