Lightroom plugin restore folders collections new PC

    I’m using Lightroom Classic 9.1 and had the unfortunate experience of having my laptop stolen, so now need to restore the WP/LR Sync LR plugin on the new laptop with the existing folders & collections intact. Fortunately had full backups of my old Windows PC, so managed to restore Lightroom Classic 9.1 on my new Windows PC.
    I’ve reinstalled the WP/LR Sync LR plugin successfully, but it does not list the folders & collections – only the Photos collection with 0 photos.

    Where would I find the files that reference these folders/collections that I had setup on my old PC? Or would I need to set them all up again in the plugin?
    What is the correct and easiest way of doing this?

    Cheers
    Dave

    Hi Dave,

    I believed I reply to you directly (support). For other users having the same issue, basically, the data is all in the catalog. So if you have the catalog, everything is fine. If you lose the catalog, you lose the related WP/LR Sync data.

    It’s similar to other Publish Services, in fact.

    Cheers,
    Jordy.
