Moved files in another drive
« on: September 22, 2024, 05:24:47 AM »
“I moved the file folders to another drive. Naively, I renamed the drive the same as the previous one, hoping that Photo Mechanic wouldn’t notice the change. However, the catalog can’t find the photos. What should I do to reconnect them? Should I recreate the catalog?”

Gianmaria,

No, you should not need to create a new catalog.  How did you move the files?  Outside of Photo Mechanic Plus?

I suggest going into the Catalog Management window and clicking the Reintegrate Forgotten Catalog button for your catalog.  If that doesn't correct the issue, contact support directly:
