Relocation of files.

First of all, what a great application. Once I pretty much got my head around things I upgraded for the added features, easily worth it.

Sorry if this is a bit noobie... I have a lot of files (roms) in various locations, different drives etc, for different systems on my PC that I've been collecting for god knows how many years. I've transferred them to new drives etc over the years and It's got a bit messy so I want to clean up and move them all onto one drive (within LaunchBox games folder) but not sure how to go about it.

I obviously know how to shift the files, but do I need to repoint LaunchBox to the new location (for each system/category)? If so, how would I go about this please?

 

Thanks.

You would highlight all games in a platform with CTRL-A and then go to "Tools/Change Roms folder path for selected games". And yes you will have to do that for every system, but not for playlists as playlists get the path from the platform.
