Moved folders and files to a different drive, but most are not showing up in My Folders

I’m trying to clear space on my C drive, so I moved some photos to my D drive, which is a 1 TB internal drive. I did this successfully a few times, doing the move completely within the 2018 Photoshop Elements Organizer. But today when I tried that, I got an error message at the 100% mark, telling me that that a file “could not be renamed,” and the only option on that message was to cancel. So I then moved the files using File Explorer, figuring I could then reconnect them in the Organizer. That was about an hour ago, and it’s still not quite right. I did reconnect them, their tags are still there, I can see the files by selecting the tag. But most of the files do not appear in My Folders, which I often use to display my files. There are 4 subfolders in the folder that I moved. Two of the subfolders do not appear in My Folders. The other two folders are listed, but most of the files in those folders do not display when I click on the folder name. I’ve tried reimporting the media, which the Organizer does, but says that x number of files were skipped import because they are already in the catalog. That makes sense, but those are the files that don’t appear when I click on the folder name in My Folders. Any ideas on how I can fix what My Folders lists and displays?

Anybody?

Yes:  Just move things around from within organizer, not file explorer, basically pick one, or the other. 

Do you have organizer monitoring the new location that you move the files to?

With organizer you do not "Import" anything- you tell it where to look- it does not move photos, but it only will look at what you exactely tell it to look at.

My suggestion, which you probably won't like:  Start over with new catalogues.  Get things arranged you like them, then tell organizer to look "here, here, and here" and rebuild your catalogues.
