Please help. In the RAW editor of Elements 2024 is there a way to copy adjustments made from one photo to another, or multiple others - not to all photos open in the editor? Thank you.

YES.

When you write the settings of the raw conversion, the w hole recipee is saved in the xmp sidecar file (for raws) or directly in the media file metadata header (for image formats like jpg). The program also saves the same data for the last written conversion or update.

So, the trick is to reopen the source file, write it again (Done) and then, your image conversion recepee is available for the target files.

In the ACR menu, look for the settings menu (three little dots) just right of the histogram and choose "Apply previous settings" from the dropdown menu.

Thank you for the reply. I want to be able to remain in the RAW editor after applying edits to target files. Following your direction, the RAW editor closes after clicking "Done". Any further advice please?

I am able to do so in my old Elements 13 version.

Thank you.

I am not aware of another solution and for me, PSE13 and PSE2024 work the same.

If you can explain your solution in PSE13, I'd be happy to test it on my side.

Clicking "Done" is necessary to save the latest conversion settings.  I don't know how to copy the settings of an image to other ones in the same open editing session.
