Lightroom help emergancy!!!

[Jellycat]

An someone help me please as this is a major emergency.

Tidying up my hard drive, I've moved my files to a new hd. Gone into Lightroom and although I can see the photos it says it can't be found.

Stupid me, I didn't realise that by moving the originals would affect lightroom. Can anyone help me get them back?

you can make lightroom find the missing files - i believe you right mouseclick the image, you follow the dialog, and point lightroom at the new folder

The trick is to always move the images from within lightroom, that way it knows where they are.

I've only just started using it so I'm still learning. But thank goodness it was easily fixable! How stupid do I feel now lol😳
