Upgrade StorageMoving Zotero Library from old computer to new computer
Good morning! I am having trouble moving my Zotero library from my old computer to my new computer. I was not using syncing on my old computer and so I have been trying to use the method by which you have the old data as a backup and then copying it into the new Zotero folder.

However, every time I try the process as directed by the Zotero website, nothing happens. I have followed the process as best I can and now have my backup data into the new Zotero folder, but I cannot see anything when I open Zotero again. Any advice?

These directions might be a bit simpler to follow:

If you're still having trouble, provide a screenshot of the contents of your Zotero data directory on the new computer.
