Hi folks, I'm running MM5 on Win10 with my collection on an external drive.
It suddenly started going bad so I had to quickly move the entire collection to a new USB drive using Robocopy (it's very fast and my collection is over 100k tunes). I did a re-scan of the library to the new location and that went fine. It's playing right now.
However, my playlists still refer to the old location on the old drive.
Is there any way I can simply re-point/re-orient my playlists to the new drive?
The folder structure is identical to the previous drive other than the parent folde rname has changed.
Any suggestions, thoughts or observations would be most welcome
Cheers and thanks in advance!

Please see the following on migrating: https://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/index. ... w_computer
The key is that you need to remove the newly scanned files on the new drive, then fix the old files pointing to the old drive.
