    Finding everything is good. It should take anywhere between 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on how many products, how much oomph your system has, and how fast the disk is.

    And I was glad to help. Sharing the knowledge, hoping it isn't forgotten in three days after sinking out of sight...

    Well, it's past my bedtime... Keep us posted on your progress. I'll check in tomorrow, er-, later today.

    It's working perfectly!  Now I can finally get back to my renders ^_^

    Definately bookmarking this thread in case I ever have to do that again.  Honestly, it should probably be stickied, since it's something so many people need to do!

    Thanks again, NorthOf45!  You're the best!

    Glad you recovered everything.There is one last thing to clean up. Those .dsx files in ManfestFiles have the location to which the products were initially installed, not the current location, which is different. They have the full path, as opposed to the library references, which use a relative path (that's why it is easy to move a library). Anyway, if you use DIM-> Show Installed Files, you won't see the right info. It has been a while, but I believe it will not show hyperliks to the files, just plain text, or maybe hyperlinks to the wrong place (the old location). If you don't use that feature, it won't matter.
