How to release my current LR catalog ?

[nuritb92265108]

Hello,

While doing a backup, the electricity power went off. The backup process did not end successfully, therefore I can not open my catalog. LR sees this catalog as opened and I get the attatced message. What sould I do ?

Thank you,

Nurit

Go to the same folder as your Lightroom catalog file. In that folder you will find a file whose name ends with .LOCK (or lowercase .lock). Delete this .lock file. Do not delete anything else.

You need to go out right now and buy a UPS (Battery Backup System, Uninterrupted Power Supply). No desktop computer should be used without one.
