I had to reinstall my OS, backing up and moving folders around, and now my library has thousands of missing items.
How can I automate the location process for all of them? The software will locate nearby files when locating manually, but is it possible to make a global hard drives search?

Recreating the old structure back is not really an option right now. At the moment, Lightroom is finding its way through the backups. But at some point I'd like to re-organize the pictures folder, and the issue would arise again.

I think the real issue comes down to "Locate missing pictures in batch without restoring the original folder structure".
