RH 10 Broken Links after copying files over to new machine

We moved RH to a different machine. After installing RH we simply copy/pasted the RH files from backup. Now the projects have tons of broken links. Any ideas? I'm not very familiar with RH at all.

Provided ALL the files have been copied across there should be no broken links. Try deleting the <projectname>.cpd file. If that doesn't work, we will need extra information to understand precisely what is going on. For example, what type of link is being used? Absolute or relative?

That shouldn’t have produced broken links – you’ll have to check and see if the new machine can see all the network resources that the old machine had; there may be a lot of links to content located on drives that the new machine can’t see.

Ok this makes sense now.. the old machine was saving the project files on the D drive. This might be the cause since the new machine only has a C drive.
