LB should show roms after moving to another partition

[HerrVorragend1975]

Hello, there !

First of all: Sorry for my english, i am not a native speaker ...

Following problem:

I started to import all my "Mame" roms and media. It took my several hours to do so. Now, after a while, i got some errors that my partition is full.

So i copied all my files ( roms and media ) to a newly formatted partition. They are all there, but when i launch LB, there is nothing, not a single "Mame"-game !!

So how can i fast re-import again, without starting from scratch ?!

I resolved this problem by myself ... To those who have similar problems:

First i imported all roms WITHOUT downloading media by unchecking the boxes.

Then, after it finished, i have chosen to download just the unexisting videos etc.

BAM ! There u have it !!!!!

Looking into this a little further, The best solution is already built in to LaunchBox.  I'm guessing this issue has been discussed ad nauseam.  That's why no one else chimed in.

For those who searched for or stumbled across this with the same issue, here's what you do:

If you moved all your ROMS for a particular platform to a different folder, partition or anywhere after you already had then setup in LB (and assuming you still see them all in LB, but they won't launch because "The ROM file you specified does not exist."):

- Select the platform
- Select (single click) one game
- Hit Ctrl+A (select all games)
- Select TOOLS
- Select "Change ROMs Folder for Selected Games..." 
- Find and select the folder where you placed your ROM files in for that platform
- Select "Yes", then "OK"
