Hi, I recently changed from PS to LR (v6.0) on Win11. No matter how I try I can't find Presets Panel or Tab. Googled it, watched lots of YouTube videos about Presets but nothing helps me to simply having that Panels available.

There is Presets Tab in Prefereces but still there doesn't appear to be any way to have Presets Panel to show up. Is it possible to have Presets in LR 6 and how? Thanks

Please post your System Information as Lightroom Classic (LrC) reports it. In LrC click on Help, then System Info, then Copy. Paste that information into a reply. Please present all information from first line down to and including Plug-in Info. Info after Plug-in info can be cut as that is just so much dead space to us non-Techs.

It would help to know exactly which version of Lightroom you are using. There is a Presets panel in both current versions of Lightroom, but it is in a different place.

Do Help>System Info and post a screenshot of the first dozen lines or so.

Hi, Thanks for responding. I wrote at the start I'm using v 6.0. I'm pretty sure there should be Presets panel somewhere cos there is Presets Tab in Preferenses. But all drop-down menus listing available panels and tabs do NOT have Presets Panel included!

Please post your system info as requested by @Jim Wilde .

We need to know exactly what version you're running.

It could be the old Lightroom 6 from 2015 (predecessor to Lightroom Classic), or version 6 (current) of the cloud based version of Lightroom.

Adobe's naming of the different Lightroom applications is extremely confusing.

The original Lightroom was released in 2007.

The cloud version was released in 2017, and was named "Lightroom".

The old non-cloud version was at the same time renamed to "Lightroom Classic".

This forum is for Lightroom Classic, you seem to be using the cloud version, which is called "Lightroom", and is now at version 6.

Lightroom Classic (currently at version 12) does have a Presets panel, I don't know if Lightroom does, never used it.

If you're subscribing to one of the Photography plans, Lightroom Classic is included.

If you're subscribing to the Lightroom plan, Lightroom Classic is not included.
