My library is on an external hard drive. I want to move it to another one. I tried changing the paths in library.db with text editors (Atom and Geany) but it only corrupted the file and made it unreadable. If the database can't be made editable by a text editor, there should be a way to relocate in bulk from the interface. Either way would be great for me.
Why do I always have the right googling idea right after I post? There's something wrong with me.
Anyway I could relocate by installing SQLite database browser and executing a replace command like this:

Sorry for the disturbance.
