Question

See screenshot.  Bridge displays the same image twice, the Metadata/Keywords area is gone, Bridge says 6502 items are hidden when there are only are only 3649 items in the folder (confirmed by File Explorer), the number of items for each star rating are wrong and don't total to anything close to reality...

 

Bridge 13.02.636 is a virtually unusable mess.

My statement is that Bridge wastes many minutes to hours of my time e v e r y  d a y.

 

My question is what specific suggestions do you have to fix the specific problem described?

What type of files are these? RAW, JPEG, TIFF etc. If RAWs the hidden files might be sidecars.

Not sure what you mean by "the Metadata/Keywords area". If you mean panels then the metadata and keywords panels are still there, perhaps you have them closed? 


The folder contains a mix of NEF (with associated XMP files), DNG and PSD files.  The total of all of those files is what Windows Explorer shows.  Explorer doesn't care what kind of file it is - it just counts them all.  That's why I said "confirmed by File Explorer."

 

The "Metadata/Kewords area" is the blank white space at the lower right of the screenshot.  That's where the Metadata and Keywords panels should be displayed.  Not talking about the Filter panel on the left.
