Excire Search 2022 FAQs
The installation works as with previous versions of Excire Search. Simply download the corresponding installation file for Windows or macOS and execute it, or start the installation program in the corresponding DMG file.
If you were already using Excire Serarch 2, there is no need to reanalyze the Lightroom Classic catalog. However, if you switch from a version earlier than Excire Search 2 to Excire Search 2022, you will need to reinitialize the LR catalog. This is the only way we can let you benefit from novel features and improvements. However, we have now developed a migration procedure such that you always have an Excire Search system ready to use: your photos are analyzed in the background and the database is update incrementally.
Migration is especially useful for users who have large Lightroom catalogs (more than about 100.000 photos) for which initialization may take several days.
You can interrupt the re-initialization and continue at any time.
There is no user manual, but we provide numerous tutorials on our website You can also find helpful information about Excire Search in our Forum .
