opening imported original files

Bob Weber
I exported a number images from my laptop into my desk top. I have adjusted the images on my laptop and exported them as originals with adjustments. When I imported them I see my original raw files without any adjustments. What am I doing wrong.

    Maybe you should export "variants" rather than "originals". Originals are just your RAW files before any opening by C1, how they are on your disk.

    It should be perfectly possible to import originals with settings.

    Firstly you need to check that the <Import Images\Adjustments\Include Existing Adjustments> option is checked.

    Next, where will Capture One look for the adjustments to go with the image files? The User Guide doesn't tell us.

    I can think of two possibilities:

    1. In the same folder in which the to-be-imported image files reside.
    2. In a folder structure as usual, i.e. <image folder>\Capture One\Settings120.

    Sometimes my brain freezes as I have done this before. Of course I had to check the box to include the existing adjustments and it worked like I wanted it to. I actually performed this import before I read your note, but thank you for reminding me that my 73 year old brain sometimes works slowly.
