Problem with Keywords and External Drives

[susang1955]

Hi! I'm finding that when I attach one of my external drives I have lost the connection to all the images in the Collections I've saved.  It seems like the keywords are not accessible unless I open each individual folder again.  Is there a way to keep keywords associated with Collections on external drives? Thanks for any help!

Thanks for the reminder.

Make sure to assign a fixed drive letter to the external drive.
