import changed photo

Question

The changes I make on  a photo,can I find the file somewhere or have I make the changes again when i import a photo again because I lost the first on?

No need to import a photo a second time. In fact, it is a bad practice, and can cause edits to be lost.

Instead, keep (do not remove) the photo in the Lightroom Classic Catalog and find it in the Library Module. Then your edits will be available.

If you re-import, if Lightroom Classic has written the metadata to xmp (not turned on by default) then the edits (final position, not the sequence of steps) are in the xmp files.

If this is in relation to the earlier thread from you, then you need to find the catalog (or backups of that catalog) that have your photos.
