Question

Delete rejected photos from Hard Disk

Hi all

I've read most of the comments on the forum but I still have a problem.

When I reject photo's, go to all Photo's, filter the rejected ones and then delete them, Lightroom gives me the announcement that the photo's will be deleted from the LR library and from Albums and shared Items.

 

I do not get the option to delete them from my hard drive.

This problem occurs ever since I changed to another computer. On my previous  one, where an older version of lightroom was running, this option worked fine. 

 

Can anybody help me please? much appreciated

What version of Lightroom are you using? You talk about 'library' and 'albums', which suggests that you use the new Lightroom (cloud). Lightroom cloud does not store the photos on your hard drive, but in the cloud.

How silly of me, I checked it, and was indeed using the cloud version. I switched tot Lightroom Classic and everything works fine now. Thanks for the help!
