Hi there,

 

Thanks for reaching out. We are sorry for the trouble with Lightroom. We'll need more information to help you with this.

Lightroom Classic has a detailed export pop-up menu as shown below:

 

Could you please confirm which of the following you need help with?

Please share a detailed description of the workflow you are trying.

 

We hope to hear from you soon.

Thanks!

    Like I said, fresh install of lightroom CC and recent version of Windows - I'm part of a college.  To be honest one would thing that with all the problems you've had with this issue, it wouldn't keep popping up.  There should be NO setting in lightroom that could disrupt the export of edited files.  The fact that you haven't resolved this issue after YEARS of it being a problem speaks VOLUMES of how ADOBE respects (or not) it's client base.  I teach photography, and since this isn't yet fixed globally - I will NOT TEACH LIGHTROOM to my students as a result.  This bug makes me, the college I teach at AND adobe look like idiots.  There are other decent programs that we can use.  There should NOT be work arounds, this issue should NEVER pop up and needs to be fixed.

      Although there are some Adobe staff on this forum, most contributors are not. Regardless if they are or not, they want to help you sort out the problems you are having.

       

      Lightroom CC no longer exists as a name.

       

      Due to Adobe's extremely confusing name changes it has been used in the for both what is now known as Lightroom Classic (disc based images) and Lightroom (cloud based images).

       

      So to help with the issue more can you provide the exact version number of Lightroom you are using and maybe even a screen recording of the problem?

        Please give more information. What version of Lightroom? What OS? What steps did you take? A screenshot will help a lot.
