Hmm. I have, at present, three physical volumes comprising the media that LR Classic 13.1 has imported original files from in that list in the Folders panel. They never change place on the Folders panel. The reason for this is probably because, when I set them up, I drilled down through the

Oh yes: I also have LR set to display only the directory name, not the entire directory path, in the Folders panel. That might be affecting dynamic ordering as well. I doubt this problem has anything to do with an engineering decision trying to "help you". It's probably just a consequence of

Like Godfrey, I have not seen this behavior in LR. I just looked, I right-clicked on some of my Folder and Drive names in the list, played a bit with the options such as Hide this Parent or Show Parent Folder… Those are possibly the settings that Godfrey suggested you might be looking for. Stan

I don't think it's odd at all. For whatever solution I've come up with to do almost anything since I've known you, you've come up with a solution which is almost always the exact opposite. LOL! I use LR to work the organization of file on my hard drive for me automatically, and use IPTC

Hello Pentaxians Apologies if I mentioned this here on the list previously…I don’t think I have, so in for a penny… I’ve started a Youtube channel - Pentax content will be, ahem, very thin on the ground - but not impossible as I still have some Pentax lenses that I use for video occasionally,
