Moved project to new drive, files still pointing at old drive

Hello all,

 

I have moved my entire folder/project from one internal SSD to a new internal SSD. I opened the project from the new SSD and have been working on it for a few weeks. I have been having issues with lag. I looked at the media and realized it's still pointing at the old SSD. I thought that they would pull from the new drive.  I should've done this differently...I guess through the project manager. Too late. 

 

What is the best way to point the media/assets to the new drive where they are stored insted of pointing to the old drive?

 

Thank you,

 

Todd

Hi @ToddNewOrleans,

I got your note. Did you try File > Link Media? That will usually do the job. Let us know if it works for you.

 

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi Kevin, thank you for your reply. That's what I did.

I ended up doing was just deleting the old project and relinking to the new one. 

next time I will use the project manager!
