Capture One 16.6.0: Why Exported Images Appear in Smart Albums

Sergi Salillas

Starting with Capture One 16.6.0, all images within a session—including those in Capture, Selects, and Output folders—are included in Smart Albums like “All Images.” This means exported files may now appear alongside your original images, depending on where they’re saved.

If this isn’t the behavior you want, there are two ways to customize how Smart Albums behave:

  1. Add search criteria to your Smart Album.
    For example, exclude certain file types (like JPEGs) to prevent exported versions from appearing. You can refine this based on the file formats you export.

  2. Disable Session Folders in Preferences.
    Go to Preferences > General and deselect “Include Session Folders.” This removes folders like Output from Smart Album searches entirely.

We’re also exploring ways to give you more flexibility in how Smart Albums work in future updates.
