Hi! New computer and the F drive that I had my sites on is now the H drive. 

Is there a way I can change the drive letter for all of the websites at once without having to go through the site manager one by one?

    Did you previously export your site definitions to STE files?

    1. If yes, open the STE file with Dreamweaver.
    2. Use Find & Replace or manually change the drive letter for each site.
    3. Save STE file and close.
    4. Import STE into your Site Definitions panel.

    Thanks Nancy,

    Funny thing... I had backed up all of my sites to another drive just a couple of days ago before the new computer arrived. When I plugged it in, it was assigned the drive letter I needed it to be. Happy accident...
