I have some parent folders that are not showing in the folder list.

Internet query suggests right-click on folder and there should be an option to display folder. Not there

Lightroom Classic 12.1

Any suggestions?

Click to expand...
The right-click option should be "Show Parent Folder", are you not seeing that?

What happens when you right click on the folder in the LrC Folders Panel? Do you get any sort of pop up menu?

Yes but nothing mentions parent folder

That command won't show if the parent is already visible, as it is in your screenshot. What you're seeing is perfectly normal.

OK, thanks.
I had assumed that I had grouped my European photos in a folder such as 2005-eu and that had about 8 folders inside of it.

I had done that in several other years but apparently according to Explorer I had not done that for 2005.
