Linking attachments in Dropbox to Zotero Standalone
Until last week, I used Zotero Firefox and kept attachments (about 1,000 article PDFs) in Dropbox using Zotfile for organization. My computer hard drive crashed and in reconstructing Zotero on my new computer I upgraded to Standalone Zotero 5. My attachments are now not linked to the Dropbox folder. Is there a way to link them again or will I have to link them manually? I changed the default documents folder within Zotero to the Dropbox location, but it still does not work.
Easiest fix is likely with Zutilo, which allows you to batch change links:

I have used Zutilo with Firefox in the past. It is now a legacy program and appears not to download into Zotero Stand Alone 5.0. When I right-click the "Add to Firefox" button on the Zutilo download page, "Save As" is not an option.
It works with Zotero 5
