Yes, I did move all my music. I looked for a way to keep the old
TrackStat data but found no option for this so I thought the old data
were lost. It would be great if it could be retrieved.

I have also changed my music path in SBS (formerly SC) from unc path to
"simple" path.

The set up now is I:\MP3\Min musik. In that folder there is a shortcut
pointing to "\\Musikmaskinen\Musik (H)\Mina CD (Flac)" where some of my
files are.

It would be great if you could tell me how to do the search and replace
operation. Below are some short excerpts from the backup file:
