How to replicate:

1. Create a User Preset

2. Adjust White Balance Temperature

3. Right Click and Export Preset with filename Test.xmp

4. Open the Test.xmp exported preset file in a Text editor like TextEdit and Note down the Temperature value. (should be something like: (crs:Temperature="5000")

4. Change the Temperature value in Lightroom

5. Right Click and Update Preset with Current Settings

6. Right Click and Export Preset, select the same location and file from Step 3

7. Click Replace when the warning about overwriting the file shows up.

8. Open the preset file in a Text editor and look at the Temperature value.

 

What is expected: To see the changed temperature value

 

What is observed: The same, unchanged temperature value.

 

Open the Test.xmp Preset file in a text editor and notice
