Can you hide “All Synced Photographs” in Lightroom Classic’s Catalog panel?

In Lightroom Classic, the Library module shows an “All Synced Photographs” item in the Catalog panel. I don’t use Adobe cloud syncing, so it always stays empty. Is there any way to remove or hide just that item from the sidebar?

In a word, no. It is one of four permanent collections in the catalog panel, and they cannot be removed:
- All Photographs
- All Synced Photographs
- Quick Collection
- Previous Import
But you can, of course, hide the entire Catalog panel if you like, or use solo mode so it only opens when you are actively looking at one of its items. I find the inability to remove that collection aggravating, since I don't sync photos either, but ultimately it's a small issue and I've learned to live with it. We don't really have a choice, anyway.

No. In Lightroom Classic, “All Synced Photographs” is one of the built-in permanent items in the Catalog panel, alongside All Photographs, Quick Collection, and Previous Import. Those entries can’t be individually removed or hidden.
If it bothers you, the practical workaround is to hide or collapse the entire Catalog panel, or use panel solo mode so it only opens when needed. But the specific “All Synced Photographs” item itself cannot be hidden on its own.
