If you export to a gedcom, the media links export. If you reimport that gedcom (on the same computer) your media will be intact. If you reimport on a different computer you will have to copy the media and put it on that computer. If you put it in the exact same place as it was on the first computer then your links won't be broken. If it is in a different place, you will only need to run the Relinker and Legacy will find the files.

The trick was to EXPORT as a GEDCOM not as a Legacy file. Then IMPORT the GEDCOM replacing the Do Over file. But it worked! Yippee! Thank you so much. I kept my original file from over the years but wanted a clean slate with this file to be sure I correctly do my citations and sources. Now I can move forward to the fun stuff...research.

Rather than copy the file and remove the sources, I exported to a Legacy file with everything except the sources.
