Destination file not available

I recently moved some files from one external to another IN LIGHTROOM CLASSIC and now it's saying that the destination file is missing.  Can anyone give me a clue as to why this would happen?

Is this what you get on startup? If so, it is harmless. It means that your current import settings use this destination folder, but you probably disconnected that disk so the folder is not available. So Lightroom Classic will use your 'Pictures' folder as default destination, but of course you can simply change that when you actually import images.

The next time you import images it will fix itself.

 


OK... I hope so, because the pop up is annoying.   Thank you so much for all of your help.

There generally is not a destination file ... there is a destination Folder. Could that be what you mean?
