Question

Why are my files being saved as UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_.jpg?

Hi there

I'm using Lightroom CC (online version). Using the desktop app to edit photos. But my original files DSC_xxxx.jpg are being saved as UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_XXXXX.jpg. Will this effect their quality when printed? They seem to show the edits but not sure about "unadjusted raw" and "thumb"(nail?)...?

I got save to... a file on my desktop. I'm asking for JPG, full size.

Thanks in advance for your help

Best wishes,
Caroline

    Your original files are saved in the cloud. What you are referring to seems to be some thumbnail, not the original image. Are you perhaps trying to use 'Save to' without having an internet connection?

    Hiya - thanks for the reply. I am connected to the internet. And go through the obvious "save to"... I just don't get why they're being saved that way. How can I change this? Thanks so much

    I have no idea how to change this, because I have no idea why Lightroom does that. What version of Lightroom are you using and what operating system (Mac or Windows)?
