Also, could you do this for us?

I had a memory of somebody else reporting a similar problem, and it turned out that they had too many folders on their desktop. Once they cleaned up, it came back. However, I just went searching and found the discussion, and that person was on a PC, not a Mac. So it probably doesn't apply.

You're not giving it enough time. You need to turn that on, then walk away. Wait until the bottom left corner tells you everything is loaded.

Right, so aren't we back to this?

If you hit Delete it will literally remove it from your hard drive. You don't want that. Reject.

First, have you seen this? https://www.damiensymonds.net/client-photoshop It's for 11:15, but could be adapted for 5x7s.

When you say "open" do you mean into ACR? Or do you just mean click on them to view them in the Preview panel of Bridge?

Interesting!

https://www.damiensymonds.net/2010/02/trash-those-jpegs.html Please don't wait too long to jump into the Bridge Class. It's really important that we start to establish your whole workflow.

You're WAY overthinking this. There's one simple way to ensure you always have the raw file, and that's to not delete the raw file. That's all.

Hell no, it's definitely NOT smart. First of all, please explain why you want to do this nonsense at all. Why do you think you need copies? Choose your explanation carefully, because my bitch-slapping hand is poised.

Is it only the labels that are lost? I mean, if you open an old raw file into ACR, are your lightroom edits applied ok?

Bummer. We need to know what they have in common. Is it their date? I see they're all 14th June in your screenshot.

What about the 13?

Are all 107 exactly the same file type?

The hidden ones are XMP files. That's perfectly normal.

Let's just clear it up. Have you done this?

Can you explain this further? I don't understand.

Do you have one of your drone panoramas to check how many megapixels it is? It won't be the full 12.

Really? Have you tried that? It's hard even when a camera is nice and stationary on a tripod ... it would be darned difficult with drone photos.

What did you decide to do, @Iva? I've been thinking about you all week.

Well, my first question would be - do those modes apply to raw files? I'm afraid I don't know anything about drone cameras. I'm just thinking of other cameras, which have various modes that only apply to jpeg files, you know?

So when you consider it, how would you describe the light in your room? Is it bright enough?

Ah, I see.
