From lightroom to photoshop back to lightroom

After editing in photoshop, my file doesnt go automatically back to lightroom. 

So I am in lightroom, I go from there to 'edit in photoshop', then I 'save', but the file doesn't come back to lightroom... How can I solve this?

What do you see that indicates the file doesn't come back to Lightroom Classic? Please describe in detail. If there is an error message, please quote the exact complete unedited word-for-word error message.

there is no error message, it does nothing. When I go back to LR Classic I see a grey file and after that nothing

Do you mean that the file from PS appears as a thumbnail without an image, and then disappears?

Please explain in detail what happens.

I suppose this is Lightroom Classic.

 

Are you confident that you do not “save as”? You could try to sync the folder.

Yes, I tried 'save' and just close the app. Nothing works. If I want to sync folder, lightroom wants to sync the whole catalogue (I make a catalogue per year, so it's too many files)

I have one catalog for my 5Tb of image data. When I synchronize a folder, it synchronizes only that folder.

 

Check the folder, if the file is present. What is the original format and what is the destination format?

@Jan Smolders try posting your issue either on the Photoshop ecosystem or the Lightroom Classic
