Lightroom writes xmpDM:pick="1"to XMP for images flagged as picks. Please add support in Bridge to recognize this attribute.
Hello Adobe Team,I’d like to request a feature that allows users to export and import Bridge collections along with their manual sort order.Currently in Adobe Bridge 2026:Manual sort order for folders and collections is stored in a central database with machine-specific IDs. Copying .filelist or collection XML files alone does not preserve the visual/manual order between machines. There is no user-facing way to export/import collections in a portable format.This limitation makes it difficult for users who:Work across multiple computers. (I use two computers at home and in photo lab at the college I may use a different computer each time.) Collaborate in teams Need to back up curated collections with specific manual orderingBy contrast, in Lightroom Classic, exporting and copying a catalog preserves the sort order, demonstrating that Adobe already has a functional model for portable, ordered collections. The Bridge approach would be somewhat different as Bridge uses the local computer’s
Hello!Why Bridge always shows document creation time different - one day later than Windows Explorer and OneDrive web app (website)?Thanks!
Adobe Bridge is giving error, is not updating and the previous version is not accessible. Creative Cloud says the version is not compatible with Windows 10. And I must update to Windwos 11. Dear sirs, Microsoft is still supporting Windows 10, until at least Otcober 2027 and my notebook is supported. I’ve got an expensive Lenovo notebook with features I considered important for Photoshop, it costed 1.000 Euros 10 years ago. I’m paying to use Creative Cloud for Photography. You can’t oblige someone to spend money they don’t have for features that eventually they don’t need. More I cannot access Camera Raw.So we have a problem. How can I Install the previous version of Bridge and prevent it from updating and damaging the existing version installed?Kind regards, Cristina
We're happy to announce the Public release of Adobe Bridge 16.0.7 This September 2026 release of Adobe Bridge includes security fixes. Note: As always, the update will be rolled out incrementally. If you do not see the update in the Creative Cloud Desktop app, please wait until we roll out the public update to all users. To update Bridge to 16.0.7, click "Update" in the Creative Cloud desktop app next to Bridge. More detailed instructions for updating
Why can’t I update to Bridge 16.0.6 if my computer works perfectly well, simply because I don’t have Windows 11?Adobe is dropping support for Windows 10. I know it is an old operating system and that it now receives very few updates, but is it really necessary to exclude all the users who are still using it?Bridge is only the beginning. Next November, when the 2027 versions are released, what will happen if you don’t have Windows 11? Will we have to forget about continuing to use Bridge?The easy answer would be to buy a new computer, but is that really an option for everyone? The current prices of RAM, storage, and graphics cards are absolutely crazy, and sadly, they seem likely to keep going up.Wouldn’t it be possible for Adobe to continue supporting Windows 10 for a little longer, especially for applications like Bridge, which shouldn’t necessarily require the latest operating system technologies?
Hallo zusammenNach der Installation von Bridge 2026 auf meinem neuen PC (Windows) sind viele “Andere Stichwörter” (in kursiver Schrift) aufgetaucht. Diese waren vorher nicht da. Wie kann ich sie entfernen, ohne dass gleichzeitig die regulären Stichwörter aus meinem Stichwörter-Baum gelöscht werden?

When I display a folder of RAW images from my camera, the thumbnails are being brightened. I can see the original unaltered thumbnails for a second then Bridge brightens them quickly all as I watch. Is some sort of profile being applied? Is this from a change in colorspace? I’d like to see the RAWs just as they are. I couldn't find any setting in preferences that would do this. Thanks in advance.
Adobe Bridge drastically reduces my Internet speed when it is open.With Bridge closed: approximately180 Mbps download / 250 Mbps upload.With Bridge open: approximately40 Mbps download / 80 Mbps upload.The problem occurs with bothBridge 16.0.3.21 and 15.1.7.I tested:Photoshop alone: no problem.Reset Bridge preferences: no improvement.Startup scripts disabled: no improvement.Windows proxy disabled.Blocking Bridge.exe in Windows Firewall: no improvement.No network drives or folders configured in Bridge.The problem is confirmed with both Ookla and Eolo Speed Test.Very unusual behavior:openingEdit > Preferences > Advancedtemporarily restores normal Internetspeed (around 200–300 Mbps). Closing Preferences immediately reduces the speed again.The problem is reproducible every time.OS:Windows 10
I am running Windows 10 and currently using Adobe Bridge version 16.0.3, which works perfectly for my workflow. Because I have no plans to upgrade to Windows 11, v16.0.3 is the final compatible version for my operating system.Despite this, the Creative Cloud Desktop app is permanently stuck displaying a red notification badge and a "Not Compatible" warning forcing me to update to Bridge v16.0.6—an update my system cannot physically install.It is a massive oversight in user interface design that users cannot dismiss, hide, or ignore updates for applications that are hard-locked by operating system requirements. I want to receive update notifications for Photoshop and Lightroom, but I am forced to look at a permanent, un-dismissible warning for Bridge.I am demanding that the Creative Cloud Engineering team implement an "Ignore Update" or "Hide this Notification" switch.When an app reaches its final compatible version on an OS, the Creative Cloud app should:Recognize that the maximum comp
Nach der Installation der Bridge 2026 auf meinem neuen Computer sind über 100 “Andere Stichwörter” aufgetaucht. Wie kann ich die entfernen, ohne gleichzeitig die regulären Stichwörter zu löschen?
When using the Metadata panel in Bridge, using Tab to jump to the next field (standard behavior for decades in any UI with fields), the order is unpredictable. One day the tab order will behave one way, and another day another way. Sometimes they’ll even go in order!! Who knows, there is no rhyme or reason.This has happened for years in Bridge, back through Bridge 2024 at least. It seems to be only in MacOS, but I haven’t cross-checked in Windows enough to be sure. Immensely annoying as I daily am keying in metadata values, and being forced to use the mouse to swap fields is a big drag.Sometimes restarting the app fixes it, not always.Sometimes rebooting the Mac fixes it, not always. I haven’t found a reliable workaround.
Recently the option to require ctrl when rating or labeling images in bridge was removed in the preferences menu. I am requesting that this option be restored. Ctrl is not required when rating or labeling images in Lightroom Classic. The discrepancy is very frustrating when switching back and forth between the two programs.
With the latest Bridge update, I see that the keyboard rating method now required me to hold the command key (Mac OS) and then a number 1 to 5. Previously it was simply just the number. Seems simple, but my habit is strong and this is a nuisance. How can I set it to just require the numeral keys? Thanks.
Since the latest Bridge update (~1 week ago), I can't save changes in the editor. The Save button (usually bottom-right) and other bottom-of-screen options vanish, as if the window is cut off—even in full-screen. Using Windows.
Suddenly BRIdge doesnt open anymore on my pc. ZeroThe new version only works with windows 11 but my computer cannot do that.I am looking for a download to continue with the older version but its nowhere to be found.Can anybody tell me where or how to find the Bridge version that works with windows 10??Thanks!
How do i open multiple windows from different directories? I keep getting “maximum tabs opened” error - is maximum tabs one tab? Also, why is the window bar so much smaller than others? (image)
I've been spending some time trying to research if there is a quick key method to switching from filmstrip mode to essentials in Bridge. I have not had any luck figuring it out. I'm running Bridge 15.0.2.432 and a quickkey would speed up my workflow tremendously. If anyone has any advice, please share it!
Bridge does not safe edits in camera raw permanently.Open multiple pictures in camer raw, make edit, save with “Fertig”.Change filters in Bridge. Open pictures again. Some pictures have lost the edit. I gave camera raw and bridge plenty of time to safe. (CPU load was back to base) Is not usable like this!
Images often flicker obnoxiously in slidewshow mode.
Hi guys, question: Why does Adobe Bridge from version 2025 not show thumbnails/previews for the MP4 (maybe other rich media files with video content)? It was so a handy/useful function, and it really works well. I didn´t change anything in the production chain, taking video the same way as I did before, and it stops working and displays just an annoying icon of the player instead. I tried to clean up the cache (Purge cache for selection) as well as to reinstall HEVC codecs in Windows, but nothing helped. Is there any reason why this stops working? Thank you very much for the answer. Have a nice day 🙂Configuration: PC / Windows 10 fully updated / Adobe CC 2025 all apps / GPU Nvidia - drivers updated as well.
I haven't used Bridge for years. I used to use it (for photos) the way I now use Lightroom for previwing and organisting images. I remember it would also work farily quickly for videos. Now it seems to not work at all. I have been importing 100s of videos (MP4 and MOV), and there are no thumbnails or previews. These are files I can see thumbnails in Windows explorer, and play thme when I double click on them. Is this expected behavour?
Is anyone else having issues with Camera Rawcafter the lastest update on 8/15/26?
Bridge 2026 keeps crashing when I open it
