- Lightroom Version Number
- 2.3
- Operating System
- macOS 10.14 Mojave
The Local Storage preference settings on my iMac is as attached. Local storage of Originals is unchecked. Note that the location for local storage is shown as an external drive called "Photos" which is unsurprisingly greyed out.
But if I look at "Photos", there is a folder called "Lightroom CC" as:
The size of this folder of originals is 5.71GB.
My understanding is that Lightroom stores originals locally temporarily if for some reason it is unable to upload to the cloud. Then when it is able to, it uploads them and deletes the temporary local copies.
If so this 5.7GB of originals, covering various dates between 2009 and 2019 should not be there. How can I check if they are on the Cloud? and can I delete these apparently orphaned local originals?
Thanks
