Change server path in PS droplets?

Hi community,

can we change a server path in PS Droplets?
 
The situation is as follows: we have several Droplets, some of which are linked to JavaScript, where we 
no longer have the original PS actions. Now the server path has changed and the server has been taken offline.
Is it possible to change the path in the Droplets? Or does anyone know of a way we can do this so that we can use the Droplets again?
 
Thank you very much for your input.

I'll dig up the link to a script that can extract the embedded action from the droplet You then need to re-record the action save step or droplet settings to the new absolute path.

There's a "DropletDecompiler.jsx" in xtools:

 

https://sourceforge.net/projects/ps-scripts/files/xtools/v2.3/

 

Download the entire xtool .zip and unzip to a folder. Then run the droplet decompiler script from the apps folder using File > Scripts > Browse:

 

...xtools v2.3/apps/DropletDecompiler.jsx
