I have my entire Lightroom Classic on an external hard drive. I made a copy 2 months ago. I have now added many files to the original external. How do I now update or sync copy 2 with copy one?

Which files are stored on the external drives? Only the pictures or all files from Lightroom?

Without additional infos I would say you have to copy the catalog and the folder with the pictures. If you are using Windows you can do this with Robocopy or FreeFileSync.

My System: Intel i7-8700K - 64GB RAM - NVidia Geforce RTX 3060 - Windows 11 Pro 25H2 -- LR-Classic 15 - Photoshop 27 - Nik Collection 8 - PureRAW 5 - Topaz Photo

My entire Lightroom Classic is on an external hard drive, includes all files associated with LRC, not just my library. I made a backup copy on another external call it external b. I have added many pictures to external A so now external B is not up to date so I want it to match External A.

How do I do this

Please explain in more detail. The problem isn't clear to me.
