Change data directory location with zotero standalone

Question

I have the excellent Zotero standalone installed and pointing to a directory. I need to move the directory (to free up space) to a different hard drive. I can't seem to find any instructions for this and I'm a bit worried about messing up all the links between the references and pdfs.

How would you suggest going about it?

Answer 1

Quite simple:

Copy files to new location, then:

Tool -> Preferences -> Files and Folders -> Data Directory Location

Select Custom

Choose... new location

Restart Zotero

Delete old files.
