Posted - Dec 12 2016 : 19:31:52 I would like to move all my photo directories from the C drive to a different drive. I know how to change the drive letter in the library (Library>Library Options>Media Library Folders>Relocate). While this clearly changes the reference for Keywords and Descriptions, it does not update the references in the Favorites files. I have, quite literally, dozens of Favorites files and I'm not interested in rebuilding them from scratch, which is the only way I can see to deal with them.
Am I missing something? Is there any way to make mass modifications to the drive letters in the Favorites files?
(I'm running version 15.0) |

Yes, that is right. As long as you save to text format, anything editor will do.

P.S. Editing with Word or a similar document writer works, too. |

Favorite (*.fvt) files are simply text files containg a file list.
To edit them: 1. Browse to the folder containing your favorite files. 2. Double-click one to edit. Choose 3. Click "More Apps" 4. Choose Notepad 5. Use Edit > Replace to correct the drive letters (e.g. Replace D:\ with F:\) 6. Click File > Save
