I have been using Lightroom for 8+ years and I just managed to accidentally delete all my keywords. The keywords were on around 100,000 images and I am just devastated.
I was importing some images to my catalog that someone had already keyworded. But of course, everyone keywords a little differently, so I wanted to delete their keywords so I could use my already vast list. Well somehow, I ended up clicking on the main folders for my keywords and deleting them before realizing what I had done. I have a backup from a few days ago that still has the keywords in it. In doing this have I stripped all of my images of their keywords or just taken them out of my list in Lightroom?
Is there a way to import the keywords again from the backup? What else can I do? Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. I am just beside myself. Thanks!
