Please use external drive name instead of letter

This is a request to Adobe.  It should be simple enough to implement and would save lots of time and frustration on the user side.  I keep my photos on an external drive.  I assigned the drive a 'permanent' drive letter, but windows doesn't honor that; it changes the drive letter nearly every restart.  Since Lightroom Classic CC apparently looks only at the drive letter, this means that nearly every time I restart I must redirect the catalog to the current drive letter.  this is a pain in the neck!!!

Are you assigning the drive a letter near the end of the alphabet (W X Y Z)?

Anyway, we are not Adobe, we are just other Lightroom users in this forum, this is not the forum for feature suggestions as we can't make these changes.

Your screenshot shows the correct forum for Feature Requests and Bug Reports.  You need to sign in though (see top right corner)
