My computer has limited space, so I deleted a folder which was backed up on my hard drive. Now I can no longer download or edit these images in photoshop. I wan't to relink this folder to my hard drive, but I can't seem to find a way to do this. There is not right click and find folder option like there is in Lightroom Classic.

Hi @april_6780, welcome to the community!

Could you let us know which version of Lightroom you're using? If it's Lightroom Desktop, just a heads-up that it's different from Lightroom Classic, everything is stored in the cloud rather than locally.

Also, how did you delete the folder? Was it from within Lightroom or directly through Finder? And do you still have the photos saved locally on your computer?

Thanks so much!
