Working with Lightroom for about 4 months ... have used other similar vault photo storage systems. While using an External Hard Disk Drive, it accidentally disconnected from the USB port. Although I know not recommended, I had to power down to keep the drive from spinning and humming. Could not disconnect, eject, stop or other ... consequently, after rebooting and re-plug/unplug ... and restarting, no luck. Restored the latest backup and opened to that catalog. All good so far ... except of the 270 images, there were about 29 that are shown as "gray" boxes... I'm assuming that these are corrupted since these look to be the files I recently modified, yet due to the disconnect USB cable they weren't able to be BACKED UP. Also, I have "?" in the front of each folder name on my new EHDD. Starting using a BRAND NEW external drive, so I assume that is why there are "?"s. Any suggestions on locating the latest version of those 29 images ... or do I just reload the originals and hop to it? I am new to the forum, so please be patient as I learn the ropes.
