Today, since doing the most recent update, all my thumbnails and previews are missing. Yet according to the finder and LR itself I have more than I requested. Once we had the ability to ask LR to not go over a certain size for the Preview files, it has never gone down as they promised, yet here I am with no previews at all visible in my catalog.

FYI, my iMac is from 2017, and yes, I need all those previews all the time. Well not all 200+GB but at least 100GB as I set it.

:cry:

Any ideas? Thank you.
