QUESTION: I recently received an email from Adobe stating that it plans to discontinue Creative Cloud synced files starting February 1, 2024. Does that mean that we’ll no longer be able to sync photos from LrC to other devices?

ANSWER: This does not impact your Lightroom or Lightroom Classic photos in any way either locally on your hard drive or those you have synced to the Lightroom cloud. What this email refers to is the Creative Cloud Files folder that’s on your desktop computer. When you installed Creative Cloud way back when, it created a folder in your Users area of your hard drive that worked similarly to Dropbox, Google Drive, and other cloud-based folder sync services. This is the folder that will no longer sync. The items that you currently have in it, if any, will simply remain in the folder but will no longer be synced to the cloud at assets.adobe.com.
