HOW TO INSTALL PRESETS IN LIGHTROOM CC CLASSIC

how to guides

Step 1

Download your files from your downloads section of your account page. Once downloaded, extract the files somewhere easy to remember (such as your desktop).

Step 2

Open Lightroom CC classic (double check you have the latest version) and navigate to the Develop Module.

Step 3

Find your preset window on the left of the screen and click the Plus icon to add a new preset. Then, choose Import presets. 

Step 4

When the window opens, navigate to where you extracted your download and select all the .xmp files and click import. 

Step 5

Lightroom will now import the presets into itself. If you do not see the presets make sure all your preset folders are expanded (as sometimes they can land in one of them).

Step 6

Thats it! 🙂 Have fun!

Troubleshooting

If for some reason you have troubles installing the presets, try these suggestions or contact us directly through the Live Chat or Contact form.

  • Make sure you are using the latest version of Lightroom CC Classic. Our presets, unless specified, only work in the versions of Lightroom that use .xmp files. This is basically all of Lightroom CC. Older versions such as Lightroom 4 – 5 use a file format called .lrtemplate which we do not provide. 
  • Sometimes the presets are placed in your User Presets, Color or some other random folder. It happens. Make sure you check each folder within Lightroom’s Preset panel to check they aren’t hiding there.
