Paula, Basically, yes. Beware of the warnings about duplicate file names though. In the particular post to which I answered the OP was moving a whole folder, hence the file names of the contents must have different file names. This may not be the case in the instances about which you have been posting.

Will this new folder then be in that list of paths you can pull up in Customize?

All the other transferred images will now be found by Legacy.

My questions if I organize it by surname for example C:\Users\Joshua Crump\Dropbox\Family\Docs\Crump\Census Records. How do I go about fixing the broken links in Legacy? Thanks, Joshua T.
