When I go into Develop Mode in Lightroom Classic with some photos, I get a messageI that says, "This file connot be located" . My files are in an external hard drive. All has been working fine, with non changes that I'm aware of. Anyone have any thoughts about finding the images? Thanks!

    Is the external hard drive plugged in and working properly?

     

    In LrC, is there a question mark icon on the folder where this photo is stored? In LrC, is there an exclamation point icon on the photo (see Figure 2 here)? If so, then follow the instructions at that link to fix the problem.

    Hey, @ahalink@crocker.com. Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I've separated your comment to a new post as the original post was too old. I'll need more info to help you figure this out.


    What exact version of Lightroom Classic & the operating system are you working on? Has this started to happen since a recent change to the External drive?

     

    If you're on macOS, please ensure Lightroom Classic has the required permissions on macOS: https://adobe.ly/3VQgVZ8

    Let me know how it goes. Thanks!
