Problems trying to reconnect files in PE10 organizer
i have pe10 on windows 7 computer. have library of 11,000 images. somehow last weekend, catalog converted drive letter on paths of image files wrong letter. otherwise, paths , filenames fine.
so i'm trying reconnect files. being cautious, starting selecting few files , doing file-->reconnect-->missing file. however, doesn't work. i've done 10-15 groups @ point. starts laborious search thru directory files. 25-30% of time, pe10 fails. pop-up error dialog says "elements 10 organizer has stopped working." 1 button says "close program". when doesn't fail, goes end of search (i presume), , pops window manually search file. fails find right file(s), in manual window can find right file , reconnects right away.
i reluctant try file-->reconnect-->all missing files. reason: on third group did above, got cocky , tried 1000 files @ once. first time bombed, , trashed assigned dates on of files.
so nightmare. manually reconnect, have 11,000 files in 100's of folders - take long time. how can reconnect work properly?
i don't have backup recent enough restore.
thank you,
bill

can tell little more drive letter ? photos stored : internal or external media ?
i suppose looking @ path , drive in 'properties' panel of organizer , compare them path/drive in windows explorer ?
