I have reinstalled FH to a new computer, restoring the applications file separately and therefore restoring custom settings. I seemed to have lost the picture links. How do I restore them?

Refer to External File Links in the online help or Chapter 10 of Getting the Most from Family Historian Manual

as ejp says its possible the image files are now located in a different directory, so you can use the Work With External File Link tool to repair the links.

Thanks for all the help. Things didn't work out first shot. The supplier had changed the name of the user and things were a bit muddled. But quiet consideration enabled me to move the files correctly!
