Edits to RAW Files in Lightroom Classic no Longer Displayed

Hi -

 

On my Windows computer, I made edits to RAW files in Lightroom. I then added a few subfolders, to further organize the files. When I now view the files in the Libary module, the RAW edits no longer are visible. The RAW files remain, as well as the TIFF images derived from them that had been edited in PS; however, the RAW files appear just as they did when downloaded from my camera. I imagine my moving to new subfolders created a hiccup - how do I fix this so I can see the Lightroom-edited RAW files?

 

Thank you.

I modified the folders outside of LR. The photos are not missing - the RAW files remain but show no edits.

 

 

 

How?

What program?

What sort of mods?

In LrC, have you set up to automaticaly create xmp files?

Go to the Develop Module and click on the last step in the History Panel.

Thank you, but I do not understand your suggestion. I go to History, and what it shoes is "Import" (with the date of the import). I click it, andnothing happens.

1. IMAGES MOVED OUTSIDE OF LrC?

I then added a few subfolders, to further organize the files.

So, you modified your file structure, fine. Added folders, fine. BUT was this accomplished within LrC using the Folders Panel, or outside of LrC.

 

And more importantly, when you moved the photos, did you accomplish that within LrC using the Folders Panel, or outside of LrC?

 

Did you cause the photos to go missing within the LrC database? The catalog?

 

see: http://www.computer-darkroom.com/lr2_find_folder/find-folder.htm

 

link above addresses a way to fix

I modified the folders outside of LR. The photos are not missing - the RAW files remain but show no edits. All files saved from the RAW files remain as well.
