Hi,

I hope someone here might be able to help. I have Windows 7 and just updated Lr which is now saying it's not compatible as I'd need windows 10 and won't open. The last update was Jan20. If I was to reverse the update would that undo all of my edits since Jan?

Apparently you are using Lightroom, and not Lightroom Classic. Lightroom Classic is still compatible with Windows 7, although there are some considerations with video. But if you are using Lightroom, the cloud version, then it will be necessary for you to revert to a previous version. The latest version is not compatible with Windows 7. It will not impact any of the editing that has been done.

Ah I see where I have gone wrong here Iwas looking at the Lr cloud icon on the creative cloud (I wish they would call it something different). I will try re-installing the the Lightroom Classic App and see if that irons out any problems. Thank You.
