Trasferring Zotero to a new computer
Report 1105633158
I transferred my zotero library manually following the instructions (https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/transferring_a_library). I just copied all my files to the new computer, opened Zotero on the new computer, and pressed sync. My library appears, but every time I go to open a file, I receive an error: "The attached file could not be found at the following path:..."
However, when I hit locate, the file is sitting in the exact directory the error message says the file cannot be found in.
Is there a way to resolve this error en masse?

Upgrade Storage
I copied all the information from C:\Users\\Zotero from the older computer. Pasted all the information on the same location in the new computer. When I opened up Zotero, the library was blank, hence why I thought I had to sync.
When I checked Advanced → Files and Folders → “Show Data Directory”, it was the exact C:\Users\\Zotero where I had pasted the information from the last computer.
Thoughts?
If you provide the info at the end of Locating Missing Zotero Data (some of which can just be a screenshot of the new data directory), we should be able to tell you more.
