Question

Library Subfolder not showing up

I'm using Catalina 10.15.7 and since the last security update I can't see the Lightroom Library subfolder, the folder arrow down is grey out and disabled. Looking online was suggested to reset the lightroom catalog preferences, I did that but did not help or changed anything. Please, does anyone have the same experience? Any idea how to fix this problem? I'm using the latest Lightroom Classic subscription and is up to date. "Show Library Subfolder is selected".  Thank you.

Just a thought, have you re-booted Lightroom Classic after resetting the Preferences file?

Also please post a screen capture of the left panel of the Library Module that shows what you experience.

Hint, in Library module folders will only be displayed if image files have been imported to LrC. The screen capture shows a drive G-10 Photo with several sub-folders and those sub-folders show image have been imported but they do not indicate that there are further sub-folders which contain imported image files.

I'm not quite following you here. Could you provide a screenshot showing "the Lightroom Library folder" in LrC. 

 

What is the item "Show Library Subfolder" that you have selected? There's a Library menu option to "Show Photos in Subfolders", but I'm not sure that's what you are referring to.
