Hi @Anada77, the good news is nothing is really lost, but you may need to set up some of the tools to navigate your images.

 

As far as finding your images, do you remember the name of the folder that contained them? Can you search in your computer for that folder? If you happen to know the names of some other images that were shot near the time of the missing images.

Hi @Anada77, the good news is nothing is really lost, but you may need to set up some of the tools to navigate your images.

 

As far as finding your images, do you remember the name of the folder that contained them? Can you search in your computer for that folder? If you happen to know the names of some other images that were shot near the time of the missing images. For example, if you know an image was shot after the image "2342.jpg," you could search for "2350.jpg." You may need to play around a bit to find the images you're looking for, but they are somewhere. Meanwhile, please read on.

 

First, I may be able to help you a bit more if I knew what platform you're on: Mac or PC.

 

Regardless of that, there are two mechanisms built into Bridge that can help you. My favorite is the Path Bar. It sits under the icons on the left-hand side.

It is very easy to go back by simply clicking on the pre-folder. In the screenshot above, I can look at what's in the folder that holds the Mount Wilson images by simply clicking on the "Vacations" folder's name in the Pathbar. If you do not see this, you can turn it on or off from the Windows menu, as shown here. If it is unchecked, the Pathbar will not be displayed.

 The other way to navigate in Bridge is from the Folder Panel, as shown below. Currently, it displays the same "path" as the Pathbar.

If the Folder's Panel is not displayed, you can make it displayed by selecting the Folder's Panel as seen in the middle screenshot.

I hope some of this helps.
