Lightroom XMP Preset Installation 7.3 Update Tutorial (How To Install Presets In Adobe Lightroom)

How to install XMP presets in Lightroom. Lightroom changed their files from .lrtemplate to .xmp, so all new presets are now stored in the adobe camera raw settings folder as xmp files instead of .lrtemplate. Installation is similar to previously, except to install lightroom xmp develop presets you now have to move them into the adobe camera raw settings folder, rather than the previous lightroom presets folder!

📸 My camera gear:

Prior to upgrading computers, I was using a 2015 15" macbook pro with 16gb of ram - So you don't NEED the fancy new computer at all... It just speeds up my editing workflow as I'm not waiting so long for previews to load.

I'd recommend going with at least 16gb of ram and 512gb of storage.

Had thought something was wrong with my presets or maybe I wasn't looking in the correct folder. Thanks for helping out.

My Lightroom looks NOTHING like yours. I'm currently using the $9.99 monthly version and I don't have near as many features??? Am I even able to install XMP files?? I tried going to file and "Import profiles and Presets" and it says they imported but they're NOT showing up! HELP ANYONE?

[StunnafulPhotography]

All you have to do is use the regular "Import" option in Lightroom and the .xmp files will easily transfer over into your User Folder. I just tried it... worked just like before the newer version of Adobe Lightroom. 😊IDK, maybe this person I got the presets from used a different coding method to be able to use the "Import" option instead of going through the Preference menu.

Thank you very much sir, you have helped me 😇🙏

[sarahobsidianphoto]

This was SO freakin helpful. Question though - I also have a copy of the presets in the develop folder in the xmp format... can that be deleted? And what about the old backups of old formats, are they useless now and deletable?

[chasingafterdear]

I did this, exactly as you did, but they are STILL not showing up? Has this happened to anyone else? So annoying. . .

[mguirodrigues]

I’ve tried what you just showed in the video but for some reason is not working for me
I’ve got Lightroom 2007-2017
7.0 release and my preset is xmp and still not working please need some help

[annadenney]

In my Settings folder I do not have another folder that says user presets. My develop presets are just in the Settings folder. Is that why none of them will let me import them into Lightroom? Is that why none of them are showing up in my room no matter what I do? How do I fix this I am so frustrated! Anybody know?

[jvmusicph]

why not all preset on my folder is not showing. from 10 preset in one folder it only shows 8 preset. the 2 is missing. thanks

[TildaHellsten]

I don't have the user preset folder?

[BesimMydyti]

If you have a folder with 100 presets and you want to import to Preset Group, how do you import? It doesnt import directly to preset group, it imports always to user preset group..
