Old images in current version of LRC

Hello all. I have several images originally edited in an older version of Lightroom. I would like to re-edit them in LRC (current version). How can I get the current tools to open instead of the old Exposure/Recover sliders version?

Thank you for your help. Merry Christmas!

Other options along those lines:

  • The lightning bolt icon is a shortcut for the Photo > Develop Settings > Update to Current Process Version command.  
  • If you want to update many at once, choose Library > Find Previous Process Photos. Then choose Edit > Select All on the results, and use the command above. 
  • If you want to start over completely with an image, the Reset button (or the Settings > Reset All Settings command and keyboard shortcut) not only restores the selected image to the current defaults, but also to the current process version.

    You need to change to the current process version. You might want to (or you might not want to) keep a copy of the old edit via a virtual copy or a snapshot.

     

    To change to the current process version, click on the lightning bolt icon under the histogram.
