LR Export Actions won´t get saved anymore

Hello.

 

Since...maybe the latest update, everytime i want to export an image to the Hard Drive, i have to change all settings to my liking again.

Before, all settings in that case were saved even after a restart of LR. 

Does anyone experience the same? I didn´t read any topic about this. So this could be a problem at my side. But i tried a lot of things...no success.

I´ll post a screenshot. It´s in german, i hope you know what i mean. Thanks in advance!

Thanks, that did it!

But the strange thing is...it just happens after an ex- and import to e.g. luminar. If i open LR without exporting before, everything works fine. Seems like an external tool overwrites my settings.

To follow up your question- Why are you using the Exporting & Importing dialogs for photos to/from Luminar?

You would find it so much simpler to use the 'Edit-In' command in Lightroom with Luminar as an Additional External Editor (plugin).

 

There is no possibility that Luminar would be overwriting Lightroom settings in an Export preset.
