LR6.14 Photos and Library copy from Mac to Windows10

[LexS]

Lightroom Version Number

LR6.14

Operating System

1. Windows 10
2. macOS 10.13 High Sierra

Hi, I have a mac with HighSierra and LR6 perpetual. About 15'000 photos. These are in a LR Library.
I recently bought a Windows laptop for traveling (Win10Pro), I have installed LR6.14 on the Win10 machine, works great, have copied some photos from mac to Win10, and imported those in LR6, again works perfect.
But I want to bulk copy the photos in Finder to the Win10 and also copy the LR6 Library to the windows machine.
How do I copy the mac Library to the windows PC?

The same way you copy any other kind of file between the machines.

The only problem will be that when you start Lightroom on the other machine, it will report that the images are missung because the catalog still points to their original location. Here’s how you fix that: Lightroom thinks my photos are missing—how do I fix it? | The Lightroom Queen

even succeeded in installing the Adobe Dehaze presets into LTR6.14 perpetual (as I did in the mac).
I am not a photographer, just an amateur. Happy now.
