    I'm using lightroom 5 that I couldn't find updates for after loading it on to a new laptop about 2 years ago (it didn't cause me any issues I'm aware of until I upgraded my camera today). Is there any fix for my situation? I realize everything is switching to subscriptions, but I despise this business practice and would prefer to pay more for something that is mine vs paying less for something I'll always be paying for and may eventually pay more for. Unfortunately sometimes a person has to 'get with the times' regardless if they like it or not. BTW, great video regardless of my situation's outcome. I'm only a recreational photographer and will convert all my NEF files before getting that damn subscription as I often go months without shooting or editing any photos (assuming this doesn't degrade my image quality).

    You don't need the batch file, just copy to folder, select all, right click, properties, details, then go to model info and delete the "_2", press ok and windows will update it.

    I have just come across this video and tried the suggested operation on my Z6II files and while it successfully changed the camera model from Z 6_2 to Z 6, I am unable to import them into LR6.14. LR says preview images are not available for the files and if I go ahead and click import, LR tells me these files cannot be opened by Lightroom. My Z6II is only 4 moths old so, could it be an issue with the files produced by a later model camera?
