Moving a Library

Moving a Library

Moving a Library

(OP)
I have a Library folder with separate folders in it for each manufacturers with their respective parts in them.

This folder is located on the server and I would like to move it to my C drive. Doing this will have inventor looking for the files when opening an assembly (Unresolved References).

How could I move that library folder without creating any issues with references between the assemblies and the library parts/assemblies?

Thanks

RE: Moving a Library

Editing your project file to point to the new location should allow them to allow them to resolve properly.

RE: Moving a Library

(OP)
As soon as I delete the old search path and I try to open an assembly, inventor try to still search for the old library.

I also tried to leave the old path there and just add the new library path, but that dosen't work neither.
