Can I copy PSE13 to new computer catalog instead of backup and restore?

Try to PSE13 my old laptop backup and restore my new on PSE13on, the backup on the old laptop crashes after several hours. Instead, I copied all the files (images and catalogue of images, c.36, 000) for the new laptop, but although the path structure is identical, PSE13 does not connect to the images he's always looking for the old name of the hard drive on the old laptop. I seem not to be able to solve the problem of backup on the old laptop, so is anyway to try to get the catalog on the new laptop to connect to the images on the new laptop? I have it reconnected one or two images manually in the hope that he would teach the new laptop on the same structure for the remaining images but if I have to reconnect each (several hundred files) it may take the rest of my life!

You can copy the folder from catalog where you want on the new computer, but as you have discovered, the links in the catalog will still point to the old drive (the drive letter is not enough, the serial number is saved in the database).

So, you can:

-try to reconnect. Maybe it's a very long work, but see:

-try to assign the same internal serial number to your drive. Read more:

-for advanced users familiar with sql databases, there is a way to edit the database so that the links point to the new drive. The shortest path, it's not easy to describe.
