    Library module Quick key for sorting in Custom Order

    Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you want, but you can just move an image to where you want it, and the Sort field will automatically change to Custom Order. There's no need to change that field manually.

    Import Catalog image count showing "0" and keywords missing after import

    Do you have a backup of your catalogue? If you do, move your old one out of the catalogue folder in case you might need it, and unzip the backup into that folder and see if LRC will open it.

    Import Lightroom importing JPG files alongside RAWs

    I suppose you could have imported pairs of images before deselecting "treat jpegs next to raws as separate." That toggle only works when you import photos. Deselecting it doesn't magically make the jpegs disappear from your catalogue. If that's not the case and you truly don't have it selected...

    Library module Folder names can not include '@' when files are on an external drive?

    I don't know what sfax has to do with anything, but @ is perfectly valid in a folder name in Windows 10: The OP says it doesn't work with LRC on an external disk, but it does on the internal disk. How is that external disk formatted? Is it a NAS?
