Reconnecting Organizer 2022 folders and albums after move to new drive

I have Organizer 2022 files on an old external drive (Network Attached Storage - NAS1).  I have a new NAS (NAS2) and have copied all of my files from the NAS1 to NAS2.  I now need a "mass" way to tell organizer that the files are now located on NAS2 instead of NAS 1.  I realize the migration approach I used may not have been the recommended way to get folders and albums from one drive to another, but I need recommendations on how to proceed now that the move has been completed.  Thanks in advance for your help.

I don't have any personal experience with NASs, but there has been a few discussions stating that the solution is the same as reconnecting 'offline' CD or DVDs.

In the organizer left folders panel in tree mode, you should find a folder 'offline media with the 'offline' subfolder.

In the right 'information panel', click on the 'location' line, which should open a popup offering to reconnect the drive.

There has been a post about this recently.
