If it weren’t for the ransomware feature, I’d stay with lightroom.  If I had 
better income, I’d still be tempted.  I have no interest in going through the 
bother of learning photoshop, and especially not paying for it.

That is the big advantage of darktable, it’ll run on Linux.  However, if I 
switch to Doze, with Linux running in VMs for getting real work done, it’ll be 
easier to back up the linux boxen. Also it seems that all the astrophoto apps 
run on Doze.

One thing I really like about On1 is that they have a focus peaking review 
mode.  I haven’t compared their HDR and panorama software with lightroom.  They 
also have focus stacking that could be handy. 

Here are the questions that I’ve sent to them, however since it’s now the 
weekend, I don’t expect an answer before the special is over?

I suspect this might be a bug report.
I tried to get back to the state of a fresh installation, so I did an uninstall 
and reinstall of photo raw.
When I tried to migrate my lightroom (6) catalog, and photo raw came up, all of 
my keywords were still in photo raw, even though I hadn't imported any photos.

Related question....
Do all the migration tools work with lightroom 6? Or just lightroom CC?

Some of the photos seem to be getting the development data, some not.
It’s also gone through and imported everything from my home directory.

I've been working on learning photo raw and importing my small lightroom 
catalog on my travel computer.  
None of the lightroom settings are coming over, I've tried various things, and 
I'd like to delete all the photos from photo raw, but not from the hard drive, 
and start all over.
I've tried starting by holding the shift key.
I've also tried deleting all of the .on1 files,
it's still wedged.
I can't find the database.
How do I bring it back to "start”?

I'm reading the user guide and it doesn't mention an option for only importing 
new photos.
I can see two possibilities, if there is already a sidecar file, photo raw 
could just skip that file. Or, it could copy the new file off of the memory 
card of the camera to the new location (rather than just skipping it if its 
there) and overwrite the sidecar file.

Your user guide on setting color labels says
6 (red), 7 (yellow), 8 (blue), 9 (green

but, like in lightroom
8 is green and 9 is blue

I'm looking to buy photo raw (assuming it will run on my desktop computer at 
home). I read someplace that there isn't a way to back up my edits, like 
backing up a lightroom catalog.  
It's hard to believe that such an important basic feature was missed.
