Who to import ARW files (sony raw format) to lightroom 6

Hello,

I am using lightroom 6 and I just did the software update.

I am using the Sony RX 100 V and I have setup the photo quality to RAW (ARW format on the sony camera).

Unfortunately, when I am trying to import them into lightroom I get a message saying the viewing is not possible for this file.

Do you know what I need to do to be able to import them into lightroom?

Thank you for your help.

Good evening

    You need to update your Lightroom to version 6.8 to get support for the RX100-V

    Thank you very much.

    I put one lightroom copy on my desktop to open it quickly and of course it does not update both of them.

    Th copy lightroom does not update with the patch.

    I suppose I can delete the Adobe ligthroom - copie as well as the lightroom 4 without any risk and keep only the Adobe ligthroom that took the update patch?

    Thank you to all of you for your time and help in this matter

    I have done the update via the help menu.

    Lightroom tels me that the software is up to date

    When I go into Ligthroom >  about adobe Photoshop ligthroom I get the following screen:

    Once I click on "Version 6.0", on the top right corner, I get the fowling information

    I do I knew if the update was installed properly? I am still unable to see or import the the ARW files.
