Both are running ubnder windows 11. But the user account changed certainly due to Microsoft new rules. On my previous one my pictures collections were stored in C:\Users\Gilles\Images On my new one my pictures collections are stored in C:\Users\balbo\Pictures As I am not familiar with IT, I don't know how to change either the "balbo" into "Gilles" or to tell digikam to point to a new storage place. Many thanks in advance for your support, Kind regards, Gilles *** SUMMARY STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. 2. 3.
