Nikon RAW has two-pixel noise line down the left in Photo develop

This is from a Nikon D40, so I'm not sure if it's an older version of the NEF format causing this.

From the Context Toolbar you can see that your image is 3039x2014 px. What is the advertised size of images from that camera?

You may simply be seeing the outer edge of the sensor, outside the advertised size, that most applications trim off automatically. The Serif Labs RAW Engine does not trim that off. It leaves that operation to the user, as sometimes that area can contain useful information.

The image size for the D40 is advertised as 3008x2000px, so it looks like it is indeed including the areas outside the sensor. Thanks for the clarification Walt.

if you select the Nikon AF-S DX VR Nikkor 18-55mm lens profile in the lens correction then this will remove the sensor artefact

Ah, that's excellent - I hadn't gone into that tab before, but it's very useful - especially for removing fringing etc.
