You did reply that supposedly some Adobe person remotely searched your drive and found NO files with the extension of lrcat. I asked this a few days ago and got no reply. So when you search your hard drive for lrcat nothing comes up? I'm using the latest version of Windows 10 and my Lightroom CC is updated to the most current 2015 version. Has anyone else had this issue, and know of anything I can do to recover my catalogue? I'm currently running a disk recovery programme to see if I can recover anything that's been deleted (not by me) I have tried everything I can think of, but how can a catalogue just disappear with 8 months worth of backups? All the collections photos are still synced to lightroom mobile and web, so I can access them on there, but the desktop catalogue is gone and when opening my old one it will resync with mobile and ill loose all the edits. lrcat file the support advisor just told me that it has gone for good and they couldn't help any further. I contacted support, they took remote control of my PC and tried to open a backup catalogue, but the most recent backup is from January, and after searching my whole system for a. I looked in my Lightroom folder (Pictures>Lightroom) opened the catalogue inside and it's empty.

The library was completely empty and the catalogue disappeared. Next day I fire up the PC, open Lightroom and it's completely empty and starts the tutorial (where the arrows point important sections) as if I had first opened it. So the other night before bed I went to shut down my computer, closed Lightroom and it prompted me to backup, so I did (I always backup when prompted weekly).
