My LRC has lost its connection to the edits. My photos are now without all work (edits). How can I restore/reconnect?

Is there anything in the History to suggest a Reset Settings?

Is it definitely the right catalog?

Are there question mark icons on your folder names? Are there exclamation point icons on the photo thumbnails?

Hi, there are no icons connected to the photos. The edits are gone (and thefore also  the work in the Collections are gone - only empty links to the photos).

By default Lightroom Classic will have your Catalog file in a folder named Lightroom at the following location users ( your username) > My Pictures > Lightroom. With Lightroom opened use explorer to select the Lightroom sub-folder and take a screen capture of the folder contents and post in the forum so the contents are displayed.

This should allow other users to offer proble problems.

Ok there are two LrC Catalogs showing towards the bottom right of your screen capture, Lightroom Catalog v12.lrcat and Lightroom Catalog v12-2.lrcat. I cannot determine the date and time the two Catalog were used. If you open the folder in list view  you will see more info.

Lightroom Catalog v12-2 is the one you had open when you took the screen capture as you will see a file with the same Catalog name with an extension .lock (LOCK). That is created when the Catalog is open to prevent access from any source.

The possibility that Catalog may have been created in error and is responsible for the problem you are experiencing.

After you look at the Lightroom folder in List view you be able have a better idea of what may have happened.

Close Lightroom Classic then go back to the Lightroom sub-folder and double click on the Lightroom Catalog v12 .lrcat file and that should boot Lightroom and open that Catalog.

See if that resolves your problem.

Thank you for your assitance.

LRC will not open by the suggested action. I also do not have a "CURRENT" file in the folder.
I have rebooted, the problem remains.

Explain, "I do not have a "Current" file in the folder"?
What folder are you referring to?

The link that was supplied refers to a Data file that is located on you windows system. See the instructions.

The data folder they are referring to are showing in "RED" on the screen capture you posted earlier. There are three folders on your screen capture follow the instructions provided and open the data folder and locate the Current file and delete it. One of those folders relate to a Lightroom Catalog v10 and the other two relate to v12 Catalog files. Do not interfere with any of the other folders or files.

 

I have never opened one of those folders myself.

I you find the current file delete then try and boot Lightroom again.
