You're right! It appears that what I did before was click on the URL in the right-hand pane instead of clicking on the pdf icon on the left. I guess Zotero info. pane on the R points to the original source rather than to the local storage location. …

I too would like to see better ability to import pdfs from one's local computer. While I agree that importing from the web is a powerful way to get metadata, I find that I also receive relevant pdfs by other means, e.g., colleagues email me pdfs or …

Thanks very much for your excellent and detailed help! Using your script above and your guidance, I was able to clean up the messy export/import from Mendeley.

Yes I was more worried about orphaned PDFs in case the dup. software deleted ones that were linked to items and left ones that weren't. But I see your point; if they're in the Zotero storage folder and the database is not corrupted, they would have …

I really appreciate the time you're spending helping me sort this out. I hope you can help me find a quick way forward even if it means sacrificing some of my information (e.g., tags) that got imported from Mendeley. re: 'Zotero 2020\Storage' They …

Very helpful thanks and sorry, I meant %userprofile%. I think when I first set up Zotero, I intended to sync attachments with Dropbox so I pointed the storage folder to one that DB would sync. That folder on the D: drive is only 300 Mb vs. 1,300 at…

The folder is empty now. I think I just needed to wait for it to sync from the website.
