External Editor

Jun 8, 2012 4:44 PM

My LR4 worked fine and listed CS6 as my external editor until I inunstalled CS5. Now LR4 has the path for CS5 for my external editor, which means I no longer have the option to Merge to HDR or Open as Layers because CS5 is not on my computer. Making CS6 the optional external editor does not help that problem. How do I get LR4 to recognize CS6 as my primary exteral editor again? Is it recognizing the installer/uninstaller and I have to re-install CS6?

    This is a known probelm with a fairly simple, albeit time consuming solution. Yes, the fix is to reinstall CS6
