Question

My imported preset that I used to use all of a sudden stopped saving onto my photos, I will apply it, adjust the slider, and click off of the photo just for the slider to automatically revert back to 100, ruining the image.

I’ve tried everything, including deleting and reinstalling lightroom, deleting and re-importing the preset, duplicating the preset, making a new preset from scratch with the same settings, and plenty of other methods but to no avail. Any preset that I make or import does not work but ones that lightroom created do. My photos are all JPGs and I am on LR Desktop. Please help

    Hey, @mht18__. Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I'll help you figure this out.


    Does this happen with a specific preset or a group of presets? Did you create these presets in an older version of Lightroom, or did you download them from the Internet? Were they working before you updated to Lightroom, and did they stop working afterward? 

     

    First, update Lightroom to the latest version via the Creative Cloud desktop app.

    If that does not help, as a test, create a new preset with a few edits, and continue creating test presets to identify having which specific, or group of edits is causing the reported behavior.


    Thanks!
