I am a Lightroom Classic user and I am trying to download a free preset from Adobe but it insists on opening the Lightroom app rather than my version of Classic. Can I change which version it is trying to install the preset into?

Correct answer Ian Lyons

Can you provide the link to the page where you're trying to download the preset from?


As @Rob_Cullen has indicated the preset is intended and therefore only accessible in apps within the Lightroom cloud ecosystem. For example, when saved, it will appear in the Presets 'Yours' listing of Lightroom Desktop and mobile devices such as the iPhone, iPad, etc. However, since you don't appear to have access to Lightroom Desktop, then it's a case of finding someone who has and is chartible enough to share it with you. Hopefully, you'll find it atatched to this post.

Have you actually downloaded it yet?  Is it in a ZIP file? Where have you stored the download?

 

To add a Develop Preset in Lightroom-Classic:

1) Start Lightroom-Classic

2) Select an image and edit in the Develop module.

3) Click the [+] on the header of the Preset panel.

4) Search in the Explorer window that opens and choose the Preset to install.

Thanks Rob,

These are presets on the Adobe site. There is a button to 'Get Preset' which launches Lightrom CC, not Lightroom Classic which I use. There is no ability to download it directly.
