    How Can One Find Image Files Lightroom Stores on Local Hard Drive?

    Is there any way to find the individual image files on the local hard drive, perhaps in the cache? It appears that LR mainly stores image files in the Cloud but some number of images may actually be stored in a “cache” on the local hard drive. The size of the cache is adjustable via the LR...

    How do I delete synced Cloud data on one machine, without removing from LR Cloud?

    My Mac's disk is nearly full because I set up Lightroom Classic to sync the originals from Lightroom Cloud storage, and since then, hundreds of gigabytes of RAW images have been synced to Lightroom Cloud from an iPad. Lightroom Classic on a different machine (PC) is the single source of truth...

    Sync Where is "Delete All Synced Data" documented for Lightroom Classic

    I am trying to find documentation about "Delete All Synced Data" in Lightroom Classic on Mac, to understand its behaviour, and any options it may have. I have searched for it in Feb 2022 edition of "Adobe Lightroom Classic Missing FAQ" and the Adobe online docs, and cannot find any write-up of...

    Local cache VS local smart preview copies VS local copy of all originals

    Hi, I have a couple of questions about cache, local copies of originals and smart previews. - Is it worth to have a local copy of the smart previews when a copy of all originals is already stored locally? - Are originals stored locally just for backup purposes, or do they have any role in the...

    Imported images seem to get "stuck" in local storage

    When I import into Lr cloud, the originals get copied/cached at %AppData%\Local\Adobe\Lightroom CC\Data\xxxxxx\originals. So far, no surprises. But I have my local storage set to use a cache equal to 1% of free space (I just took it that low for testing) which should put the cache at about 400...

    Cannot Shrink Lightroom Mobile Storage on iOS

    I'm using Lr Mobile on iOS from the beginning, upgrading the iPhones every year, and it suddenly swelled inside the 7+, taking 200GB of memory. I've had only one collection marked offline, and doing Clear Cache on it freed up meager 400MB. The Lightroom Photos is the only other collection...

    6 MB vs 12 MB - Can I Expect Better Speed?

    My computer has really been screwed up by a Windows 10 upgrade. I am trying to resolve that with MS. As a result, Lightroom won't even open. I will try and resolve that with Adobe. But my last resort is I may need to buy a new computer. I can get a good deal on one that has 12MB cache, instead...

    Greetings, I am new member on the forum. I would like to know how can I fix the preview cache error for good. I have tried the fix found on almost every Lightroom forum on internet (which to delete the preview folder) but that is not helping. I keep getting the error. I am so surprised that this...
