I use Lightroom (cloud ecosystem). I like to create duplicates of my files to edit easily in b&w and colour (I find this easier than versions when exporting). But 99% of the time, when I click 'duplicate photos' it will create them, the little blue wheel will spin, and then they disappear. How do I make them 'stick'?

Like I said, I can't reproduce this. You are not using the latest version, however. Update to 4.4 first and try again.

Hi Johan

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom version 4.3 (note this is not LR Classic)

Mojave v10.14.6

I right click on an image, and select 'duplicate 1 photo' - it creates a duplicate, but then it disappears a few seconds later. Sometimes it sticks; most of the time it doesn't. I just have to keep trying until it sticks which is a HUGE waste of time.

I can't reproduce this. What Lightroom version and what MacOS version are you using?
