Lightroom Version Number
11.0.01
Operating System
  1. Windows 10
I have Lightroom Classic version: 11.0.1 [ 202111111509-eae8952e ] (Windows 10) . It generally works OK, but cannot see Color Profiles. When select:
File > Import Profiles & Presets I just get a version of Explorer - I need to specify where the relevant file is. I suspect that it is not automatically showing me Profiles because I have partly moved Lightroom & Photoshop from C, which was almost full, to another SSD. (I used EaseUS, a really useful tool to free up space on C). So - apologies if this has already been dealt with, but I cannot find where - what file name(s) do I need to find to import profiles? Thanks.

Can you clarify what type of profiles they are? If they're ICC profiles, they need to be installed in the operating system rather than in Lightroom.

Thanks for responding. I know that ICC are hardware related profiles. I assumed Adobe had an import dialog of some kind planned to follow "File > Import Profiles & Presets " that related to editing - and I think I saw just such a dialog in a tutorial somewhere - that I cannot now locate. The good news is that what I was originally trying to do was use Tone Mapping - and I did not realise when I posted that it is accessed via Profile Browser. Original problem fixed. So - a follow on question - Profile Browser shows me "Artistic" "Modern" & "Vintage" profiles in Lightoom - I guess others are available somewhere - what should I be looking for?

There's additional profiles available for raw files in the same location. The ones for JPEGs etc. are more limited.
