All of my edit in options in Lightroom have disappeared. The only one left is edit in PS. I had the use of them this morning. Any idea how I can restore the edit in options??.....Thanks

If you are using a Mac and you back up daily, go to:
Users/ (you will see your user name) /Pictures/Lightroom/Backup/ (find the latest date and open the folder and click on the zipped file and it should restore your Lightroom settings- be careful, because it will restore to your last save!

Great... thanks I will try that.

I'm sorry I did not explain myself correctly. What you dent was a good thing to know. In fact a lot of those presets were missing and I will reinstall those. Thank you. My problem is when I click on a picture in Lightroom and the "edit in" option pops up the previous edit in such as; Luminar, Perfect photo, Photomatix or a few others are no longer an option. They are all gone. They were all present on Thursday and for years before. Once again thanks for your help.

Did you do a recent update of Lightroom? The last time I did an update, Adobe actually did a complete overhaul of Lightroom and installed a new version and deleted the old version. So any plugins are now gone. But they don't delete the old folder that the plugins were in. So all you have to do is drag them from the old version folder to the same spot in the newer Lightroom folder. Or, if you have the original plugins with serial numbers, you can simply reinstall them like you did originally. One last thing you can try is open Lightroom, File>Lightroom Plug-in Manager and you will see the plugins that are available on the left side and you can enable and disable them there and you can click on show in Explorer. If you have a Mac it might say Show in Finder instead. In an case, this might help you find where they live, and you can then move them if you like. But restart Lightroom if you move them and then reopen Lightroom Plug-in Manager to enable them again.

If you have a Mac, you might want to do a search on plugins for Lightroom on a Mac and follow some of the instructions there. Plugins for a PC work a little differently than Mac.

I had the same thing happen a few weeks ago.
Try going to Preferences _ Presets.
Uncheck "Store presets with Catalog."
This solved the problem for me. Good Luck

It might be that you will have to redo the "Edit ins"
