Writing Metadata to File

[bobbyizq]

I'm getting the Write Data to File  icon on my thumbnails when I edit a photo. I can work around this by selecting it, but why isn't Lr just writing the XMP sidecar audtomatically? I have my Catalogue preferences set this way. I'm using the 11.0 Release, Windows 10 Home 64 bit

v11 Lr-Classic has made some changes to the way metadata is written-

I suggest you read some of the update news that may give clues to your experience-
