Folder structure is lost when importing from LR catalog (LR 6.14) to LR !?

Hi,

I made the switch from Lightroom 6.14 to LR (cloud-based) today. When migrating the LR catalog, all photos were imported, but the folder structure I used is completely missing. Without a folder structure, however, I cannot work with my pictures meaningfully 😕😕

In addition, LR 6.14 can no longer be started (or found in Windows) although I have not uninstalled it.

Is it somehow possible to get the folder structure as I had in the new LR?

thank you in advance

In other words, it is not possible to have the same folder structure as you had in Lightroom 6.

As you may/may not have found out, you need to create Collections from Folders prior to Migration

I exported each year (25 albums per year) as a separate catalog out of Classic, and imported into Cloudy separately, creating a new Year folder in Cloudy before the next import. So about 20 migrations for 500 albums, but my Classic structure is recreated in Cloudy.
