How to purge the windows live photo gallery database of missing files

I recently moved most of my photos on a removable drive from SD. Of course, photo gallery can not find them and I can't point the Pb on a removable drive. Please tell us how do I purge the database of photo gallery of found files.

Might be interesting to try to rename the Photo Live
Gallery database file.

The "Pictures.pd4, .pd5 or .pd6' (according to
on the version of your photo gallery), database includes
inches and metadata and is located at the following
location.

C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\
Windows Photo Gallery\Pictures.pd4, .pd5.
or .pd6

The file ends with a advanced
Research of pd4 pd5 and pd6.

Reach... Start / Search / Advanced search.

Check the box... "include not indexed, hidden,
and the file system"enter pd4, pd5 pd6 in the
Name field

Rename the .pd5 .pd4 or pd6 file should
clean your library.

Try a click right/rename it...      Pictures.OLD
If you are not satisfied with the results... you can
Delete the new file and rename the OLD file
Back to Pictures.pd4, .pd5 or .pd6.

Photo Gallery will return to what it was the first
time that you opened it. The gallery will have to re-
complete and you may lose some tags.
