Lightroom Folders

When I import an image into LR, it is displayed as being in a separate folder in the navigator panel. See this image to see what I'm talking about. The photo itself is stored in the correct drive and folder, so I'm not sure why LR is doing this. Any help is appreciated.

Here is an image of my import settings.

At a quick glance, the parsing of the network drive name has resulted in different drive names.

Why this has happened I cannot say.

Which exact NUMBER version of LR are you using?

Which version of Windows?

Thank you for the reply. I recently moved all my photos to a large external NAS device. So far it has been rather painless, this specific issue notwithstanding. I had wondered if the apparentlily different drive parsing had caused this problem. Not sure how I could change that.

I am on LR CC on Windows 8.1.

Actually, you're not. You are using Lightroom Classic CC (or perhaps an earlier version), not Lightroom CC.

Previous Import is not a folder, but a collection (list) that displays the image(s) from the latest import.

You can turn this behavior off by going to Preferences > General and unchecking "Select the "Current/Previous Import" collection during import. (at least I think that's what this option does)

Thank you for the reply. I will attempt this option when I return home.
