First of all, apologies if this is already answered in the forum or in the Missing Questions but I have not found it.
Following a failed upgrade of the Mac Big Sur update, I reverted to Catalina 15.7 but only by erasing the HD and restoring from backups. As part of that process I changed my user name from "doug-mac" to "doug". Consequently my LR Catalog (and all previous catalog backups) points to the path doug-mac/pictures but all my picture files are in the path doug/pictures. I do not want to revert to the original username (having migrated all other data to the now current username). The file structure from doug/pictures is unchanged.
How can I redirect the LR Catalog to find all my pictures again? Do I have to rebuild the entire catalogue and recreate the previews etc and l risk loosing the numerous picture edits?
