why does lightroom classic not read or open sony rx1R mark 3 raw files while PS does?

Correct answer Rikk Flohr_Photography

The likely reason you are seeing this is that your Lightroom installation is out of date.  Classic's currently 14.5 and does support this camera. What version do you have installed? Please go to Help>System Info… and provide us with your software's installed version number.

Photoshop uses the Camera Raw plug-in to read Raw files. Lightroom works differently. It has camera support included in the program itself.

 

Both Camera Raw and Lightroom need to be updated separately to get support for new cameras.

 

See this list of Adobe camera support and note the different columns showing various versions of Camera Raw and Lightroom to support each camera.

As @Rikk Flohr: Photography says, your Camera Raw plug-in is probably up-to-date. Your Lightroom installation likely needs to be updated,
