Trouble with file/folder path

hi there,

 

here´s problem. (images screenshot attached simplify  whats about)

 

when started pse, had several external drives connected wich use backup (separate backups professional stuff, private, etc)

 

now, see pse still search files on old directories (not existing anymore)

 

when use "reconnect files" (image 1),

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i can see old file identic new suggest "reconnect" (image 2)

 

after suggesting new file "connect" old thumbnail, pse tells me in past, there file linked image......

 

 

honestly, don´t know if pse has problem "reconnect" instruction or if don´t it.

 

i mean - obvious file has changed directory. dont want adobe work on files on external usb drive (slowing down, talking overall 120.000 pics) - after first tryouts, got clean structure , now, cannot reconnect  files? (image 4, "reconnect" button grey , unusable)

 

 

thanks kind of helpful advice on this.... either solution simple , thats why don´t see or - worst case scenario - there no "simple" solution that.

 

looking forward suggestions.

 

thanks

i'm not sure why reconnect button grayed out, re-import 1 photo (file>get photos , vide>from files , folders) generate new reference it, , delete 1 disconnected.
