Hi everyone.
I am not to sure but lightroom can't seem to find all of my pictures from this year. They are on the hard drive but all that i can see is there is a new folder called desktop and it has 829 pics in it but i can't seem to open it. Any help would be great.

Outside of LR, determine the full path to the directory you want. C:\users\joeblow\docum​ents\pictures\2015, or whatever. Go into LR, select IMPORT on the Library panel. Point the importer to the same complete path from the previous step. Make sure you have ADD selected, and LR will add them to the library from right where they are.

What version of LR, and what camera are you using?

What was the "root cause" of your problem?

Not sure i was trying to access the files but they were all greyed out and most of them had ? beside them. I shut down and rebooted the computer and it seemed ok after that. I may have pressed something on the keyboard or in the program it cause it.

Hmm, it sounds like some kind of glitch, who knows whether it was LR or the system?

Not sure but with the systems all being different is no wonder we sometimes have unexplainable problems.
