Hello,

 

Please take a look to my screenshots attached first. I moved my pictures from an externl storage to an other and wanted to get the editing steps back. I already tried this: https://www.computer-darkroom.com/lr2_find_folder/find-folder.htm and it worked for my RAW files which I edited as you can see in the screenshot, but not for the improved DNG RR files. There is a "!" in a different way sympoblized. Can someone help?

 

Thank you in advance.

 

Best,

Jonas

My web browser will not open your attachments (or anybody's attachments), and so I request you provide your screen captures by clicking on the "Insert Photos" icon, instead of attaching files.

 

Also, what does RR mean in this context?

"My web browser will not open your attachments (or anybody's attachments)"

 

Attaching files is a perfect reasonable and legitimate way to share image information, DJ - you seem to be pretty unique in your objection to it. Is there any particular reason why you can't upgrade to a more functional browser?

 

I have three on my machine - Opera, Chrome and Edge (favoured in that order) - and I can open attchments in all of them: so it's not a hard thing to accomplish...

First up, a problem not directly related to your move. But a issue that needs to be resolved. No navigator, no Histogram, no Loupe View, all gray.

 

 

 

 

That is a classic indication that your preference file is corrupt. A corrupt preference file will lead to all sorts of odd behavior. This could include issues in the Folders Panel. Ac corrupt preference file will not be corrected by an update, an upgrade, or a normal un-install followed by a install (not sure about a full CC clean). Be aware that resetting (deleting) the preference file will revert various settings to defaults. Read the following links, and consider implementing:
