- Lightroom Version Number
- LR Classic Version 8
- Operating System
- Windows 10
I am using LR Classic (version) on 2yr old HP Spectre laptop using Windows 10. My photos are stored on external hard drive. My 1st HD had malfunction and I had to get photos professionally recovered and put onto new external HD. I lost about 15% photos (very random) that were not recoverable.
My issue:
In Windows, I can see the folder (2012-07) on my external hard driver and open it to see the 6 photos I want to link to LR.
From LRC, the same name of the sub-folder (2012-07) I created is greyed out and # pics is zero. Normally, I would right click on LRC folder 2012-07 and select “Update Folder Location”, then drill down to required folder on Windows external hard drive to link the photos. In this instance and a few others for the year 2019, the photos do not show up and I cannot link.
Any suggestions as to what this could be?
