Reply about my Lightroom Odyssey: Long story but I have 20 years of 170K files mixed in with other non-image files, many dupes, some with non-obvious file names/folder names, and/or no metadata. I need to eyeball the files and leave folder structures intact as I move them into my new folder structure on an adhoc basis. Some of this I have to do outside Lightroom so I don’t orphan files that belong together. I’m doing it piecemeal so I can find old projects and collate before I maybe publish them. I have done Years so far. Months will be done as I go along, as a way of finding projects and a bit more care needs to be taken. I expect this process to take many months or maybe years. 12
