It sounds like you may have selected the wrong catalog file, which will make it look like you lost your pictures. Inside LrC go to File> Open Recent and try opening all of the .lrcat files you see. If none of them appear correct search your system for .lrcat using File Explorer or Finder.
Thanks. I really lost the pics. My hd crashs on the floor. So i start to use the backup. But i was finishing and now i have to start again?? 😞 -- || Fotógrafa e Filmmaker || www.zoguimaraes.com ::21 98764-9010::
Assuming you "lost all my pics" (which I'm not convinced you did as explained by @Todd Shaner ), then:
Now (and not later) is a good time for you to learn about how the Lightroom Classic catalog works. The edits you create are stored in the catalog. There is not a concept of "copying edits" to another instance of the photo. The edits are in the catalog, they are still there even if your photos are not on your hard disk; and you simply have to tell the Lightroom Classic catalog to now apply these edits to copies of the photo on a different disk. You can do this via these instructions: http://www.computer-darkroom.com/lr2_find_folder/find-folder.htm. Please note: importing the photos is NOT a solution and will actually make the situation worse.
