I have been using Lightroom Classic and have had the firmware update for a few years, 2 days ago, I could not import photos (Raw and JPG) to Lightroom Classic, there was a dialog box pop-up showing (Can not import photos into the intended file). I did not change the settings of My Lightroom Classic, I used the same SD card and CFA Card. Three days ago, everything was OK.  

 

Today, I uninstalled and reinstall the LRC, however, the situation remains the same. Later, I imported the same photos into  Lightroom.  It is OK and Lightroom can modify the photos.Someone Please help !

 

Thank you in advance for your prompt reply.

"Can not import photos into the intended file" was probably "Can not import photos into the intended folder" and would simply mean that you selected a destination folder that is off limits to Lightroom. Uninstalling and reinstalling Lightroom would have been totally unnecessary, and cannot avoid that you can make the same mistake and select a destination folder that Lightroom has no permissions to write to.

Thanks for your reply.

I have created a backup file on 2021 and never have any issues with it.
