Ah! sorry if I misunderstood................hopefully those 'in the know' will be along soonIt doesn't open in camera raw, it just opens in Photoshop with half the edits missing, looking nothing like it did in Lightroom. I want the dialog box back!

That is exactly how it is supposed to work. You have THREE options to choose from. Select the option that is relevant to what you want to do.With my JPGs, when I right click and go to edit in Photoshop:

I get this window:

But when I do the same for Raw files, it's not bringing up the dialog, it's just opening up the Raw with some but not all the edits. I don't recall it acting like this before? What setting have I buggered up?
I can't because it's not there!That is exactly how it is supposed to work. You have THREE options to choose from. Select the option that is relevant to what you want to do.
I have just tried , edit a Fuji raw file (.RAF) in LR with some rather dramatic edits , then edit in PS, no dialog box but the edits still seem to be there.
So, if the problem is that some of the Lr edits are missing when the RAW image opens in Ps, would it not have made more sense to post screen shots showing the difference, rather then a screen shot of the dialogue box that you get when you send a jpeg/tiff image to Ps.With my JPGs, when I right click and go to edit in Photoshop:

Can you do me a favour and just convert one of those to Black and white then try for me?
I recall that I had something similar a few years ago. The same three choices were offered when opening a Raw file in PS, but only at the time my ACR was at a different level to LR Raw. The dialog box showed a tick box (don't show this again). I unintentionally ticked this so was not offered the choice again and thus LR edits were not passed across. The solution was to go to LR Preferences>General and at the bottom is an option to "Reset all Warning Dialogs" . It might be worth a try.But when I do the same for Raw files, it's not bringing up the dialog, it's just opening up the Raw with some but not all the edits. I don't recall it acting like this before?

Alan when you sent your file from LR to PS, was its final state in LR's history panel selected - ie you hadn't reverted by accident?
Did it show up OK in B&W in PS? As mine is completely ignoring that treatment, and seemingly the contrast curves.As Requested
1) Fuji .RAF file exported from LR as .jpg no edits
2) As above, contrast boost and BW conversion in LR , exported from LR as .jpg
3) As Edited in LR as (2) then exported from LR to PS via "edit in" no dialog box popped up then saved as .jpg from PS. Not exported via LR hence no copyright logo
Hope this helps
Regards
There's no dialogue box when a raw file is sent to Photoshop (ctrl+E on a PC). At least here, with PS CS5 and LR6, LR prepares a tiff from the edited raw and opens it in PS, where it appears as it did in LR at the time of export ie with all LR adjustments to its appearance, including any mono conversion. PS is a pixel editor and can't itself operate on raw files, but only import them via the Camera Raw plug-in, which would be superfluous in the present circumstance.
If the file is saved directly from PS it'll appear back in LR as a tiff with the word 'edit' appended to its name, and will show the PS edits baked in. It'll also be added to the catalogue.
The picture is irrelevant, it's the dialog box that concerns me, I.E. I want it for Raw Files.So, if the problem is that some of the Lr edits are missing when the RAW image opens in Ps, would it not have made more sense to post screen shots showing the difference, rather then a screen shot of the dialogue box that you get when you send a jpeg/tiff image to Ps.
And just now you said:But when I do the same for Raw files, it's not bringing up the dialog, it's just opening up the Raw with some but not all the edits.
Forgive us if we get confused ...All this I know, I don't want PS to open a Rawfile at all ...
Originally you said:

So are you saying that the RAW image is opening in ACR, if not then the image is a TIFF file.To clarify - I want it to do what it claims to do, IE, make a copy of the RAW as 16bit TIFF and open that in PS. But it doesn't, it opens the Raw in PS which tries to mimic the edits already applied (but fails), then whatever edits are made in PS Saves that as TIFF and imports that into LR. I want all the Rawfile edits to stay in LR.
For any software issues, you should state what your versions are ...
Are you on CC?

Lightroom “Edit In” Photoshop – Bryson Leidich (wordpress.com)
Para 3
If you “Edit In” PS when you open an original raw file you get no additional dialog box. LR adjustments to raw are just applied to the file as they would be from ACR. Saved files are new and the original raw remains. But, when you open a psd, tif or jpg file, including layered psd or tif files you have produced by previous editing, you get a selection box on how to handle the file.
!!!The only time I had any issues were when the version of Raw in LR was different to that in ACR.
There's a danger that even if you managed to install a version of Camera Raw earlier than your version of PS, it might subsequently auto-update and you'd be back where you started.Has anyone got Camera Raw Pre 10.1 they can send me? 10.5 is the oldest I can get from Adobe which is still newer than the 10.1 in LR.
First of all, the image that has opened in Photoshop is in fact a TIFF file, but the file extension does not change to TIFF until you save the image.
This might depend on the version of PS, if not the relative versions of PS / LR ... here, what had been the raw in LR opens directly as a tif with that extension in PS. The tif preparation occurs in LR along with a progress bar top left.but the file extension does not change to TIFF until you save the image.

Secondly, do you have the same problem when you send a colour image, that you have edited in Lightroom, to Photoshop?

I think that my strategy, if you wanted different image versions, would be to create a virtual copy in LR - process that in LR as required, export within LR as tiff, and edit that tif further in PS as required.
In the example dialog you posted you have the "Edit original" button checked.LR 6, PS2019
Yes, it opens the Raw image in PS, LR does not make a Tiff image to send to PS, PS makes the Tiff to go back to Lightroom.
