Any way to find which catalogue I used in Lightroom?

[snerkler]

I have an old photo I took in 2014 and I really like the processing, however I can't find which lightroom catalogue it was from to go back and look at the settings. I've used the search in LR but it's not bringing up a file of that name. I wasn't great a cataloguing my catalogues back then (I tended to use a new catalogue for each year and each camera) and I'm thinking it might have actually gone missing. Before I give up hope is there a way of checking the metadata on the photo to see exactly which catalogue I used, or will it just say it was exported from LR?

Edit: Catalogue now located

If you exported it with all metadata included there will be a process version entry that will tell you which version of Camera Raw was used. I.e. Camera Raw 15.4 is current (process 6 in LR)

Thanks, I don't think I can narrow down the catalogue to which version of camera raw was used. However, I have managed to find the catalogue used on one of my old external drives

You can match process to which version of LR, which would correlate to date of the catalogue... Not easy/direct, but there is nothing that will otherwise tell you what catalog the original file is/was in.
But it's good you got it sorted...

I have a very vague memory of a similar question to the Lightroom Queen a few years ago. It might be worth doing a bit of digital archaeology to see if it was ever resolved there.
