I want to restore my catalog to a new computer using Windows 11..My backup file is on OneDrive.  Instructions at  https://helpx.adobe.com/ca/photoshop-elements/kb/backup-restore-move-catalog-photoshop.html#Movecatalogrestoretoanothercomputer 

show 2 options; restore to "Original Location" or "New Location". 

 

My new Photoshop Elements 20.0.0 does not give two options. It just asks me to choose a folder. What folder do I choose?

On my old computer the folder was C:\ Programdata\Adobe|Elements Organizer\Catalogs.  My new computer does not have a folder C:\ProgramData

My objective is to mainatin as much of my ctaalog detail and structure as possible.

I think I just answered my own question. C:|ProgramData was a hidden folder. I "showed" it and now in the middle of a Restore.

Hi , I've moved your post from the Photoshop forum to the Photoshop Elements forum where you are more likely to get help with your issue.
