When upgrading to Lightroom classic 14, all previous edits are lost

[carlosfi]

Al actualizar de Lightroom classic 13.5.1 a cualquiera de las versiones 14, no recupera el catálogo ni ninguna fotografía/edición, obligando como única opcion importar fotografias, como si fuera la primera vez que se usa el programa. La única forma de recuperrar la informacion es volver a instalar la versión 13.5.1

Sometimes during an upgrade either:

• The wrong catalog gets upgraded
• No catalog gets upgraded, a new catalog is created

Typically none of us get either LrC mistake, but those who do normally get the former. This does not appear to be documented as to the how/why. IMO a corrupt preference file exists. Solution is to use your OS file browser to locate the correct pre upgrade catalog, and double click on it, and cross your fingers.
