RT Editor opens my .raw files with changes

Hello
At first sorry for my english.
I am a new user with RT.
I have edit and export (saved) my first raw picture in jpg. But now, every time if i open a new picture in the RT Editor, the picture is already edit like the first one. It seems that i have by mistake enabled and save a profile.
How can i open my .raw files in RT Editor without any changes?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello @tonio and welcome!

Check your RawTherapee’s preferences:

If you change “For raw photos” to Neutral, no changes will be made during import.

Also: do not be sorry for your English. I understand it perfectly. Ha, you should hear my Greek (if I guess your language correctly. In principle, it is limited to keftedes.)!

Have fun!

Do you know “keftedes”? :slight_smile:
Thank you for answer, “For raw photos” was “Neutral” but the problem exists.
For example.

IMG_1485.CR2 (27.3 MB)

in neither of them I have made any changes.
The first one have more color.

Good morning!

Please make this swift experiment:
Open IMG_1485.CR2 in RawTherapee.
go to Processing Profiles, select (Neutral).
Like this:

What happens?

Ok I did it that way. As you can see it’s not like the original .CR2 file.

Welcome @tonio

It seems to be the CR2 file demosaiced without any additionnal processing.

As you cannot display a CR2 file without processing it (at least demosaicing it), what is the file you name original .CR2 file ? Is it the jpeg file out of Camera?

In this last case, you have to know that raw files ( here a . CR2 file) are internally heavily processed by camera SW in order to produce enticing Out Of Camera jpegs.
