Switch to Lightroom classic from Adobe Lightroom

Hi there,

Welcome to the Lightroom Community.

There are a couple of ways you can move from Lightroom to Lightroom Classic, depending on how you continue after this. You can pick a suitable method.

Before you go further, please read this Sync-related FAQ to help you set up and organize your Lightroom Ecosystem effectively: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/kb/sync-faq.html

• You can use Lightroom & Lightroom Classic both simultaneously, using LrC on the desktop and Lightroom mobile for the on-the-go type of tasks.
  
   1. Enable Sync in Lightroom Classic & wait for all the original images to download from the Lightroom Web to your computer's local storage. https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/help/lightroom-mobile-desktop-features.html
  2. You will have to manually export all the presets in Lightroom by right-clicking a preset > Select Export & then re-import in Lightroom Classic.
• If you wish to move away from using Lightroom & only continue using Lightroom Classic & still can selectively sync some images to the Lightroom cloud, check the discussion in this thread: https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-ecosystem-cloud-based-discussions/about-cloud-storage-image-gallery-amp-selective-sync-lightroom-on-macos/td-p/12973647

Let me know if this helps,
Thanks!
