If you are only processing .CR2 files from your 6D, i'd uncheck all of the other file types....and make sure that you are pointing to the correct directory to pick up the files.


P.S. by all means get some new kit - but i don't think either W7 or your rig is the problem here...
Thanx sharkbite, what you say is interesting, because when I down load some things the process often gives the option on where to save parts of it, so I change the directory and save to my download folder so I can easily find them, but by the sounds of what you mentions is that, maybe I should Not do this and let the download put thiings where it wants to ? Would that be the better way to go, I assume, I get lost with t his sort of thing

BTW, I usually convert raws into tiff before stacking, old habits... And all my photos, images go into the main pitchers folder -- if that helps.

Cheers
