Updated to Lightroom Classic v7.2, interface shows old interface

Hi

I am running OS X 10.11.6 and have updated to Classic V7.2, but the interface still looks like Lightroom 5. I am enclosing a screen grab and point out two key features: 1. the range mask for the graduated filter is unresponsive and remains dimmed as shown here 2. the Shadow and Highlight sliders are still called Recovery and Fill.

I teach Lightroom; I'm sure that I'm not making rookie mistakes. I have re-installed it. I have run Disk Utility. I have re-started. But this is a puzzler.

Thoughts? I don't see any mention of this out there.

Thanks to all in advance.

It looks like from your screen shots you haven't updated to process version 4 - which it now is.

You have to go down to camera calibration and update the process version from there. Your screen shot with fill light etc looks like it is from process version 2? (lightroom 1-3). Lightroom 5 was process version 2012 which had shadows and highlights.

You should have shadows and highlights rather than recovery and fill light.

Thanks! I hadn't thought to look at that - not sure how it had stayed on Process V2! I now do most of my work on the college computers and so hadn't noticed this until you pointed it out. ***** Thanks.
