I am contemplating a switch to Lr and the cloud so I've been reorganizing my Catalogs filing system. I also split it in two, which was so easy with "Export to Folder". I was surprised by haw fast it happened.

I found the newly Exported Catalog folder and was curious about the folder named "L-". Can I rename that folder, to something more relatable?

I assume it I can safely "Remove" the folder I exported as a Catalog.

I have a couple of questions about the filing system. I want to clean up the Catalog folder, with all its unrelated files, like Settings, and that TPG plug-in folder.

Can I move all but "Backups" out to other folders, leaving 2 lrcat files and 3 folders named: prn, default, and Backups.
