Hello, All:

This has likely been discussed someplace but as I couldn't find it (I don't know what it would be listed under) I decided to ask the question.

I was forced to renew Windows 8.1.2 so my library is still present (a root folder plus five sub-folders) but I had to re-install the program. When it asked for the name/location of the library, I provided the root library location, expecting the program to find the sub-folders. It didn't and now the only library I have is the root folder.

How do I add the remaining folders (libraries)? If I click on "Switch/Create" the three choices imply that something gets changed - all I want is to add the additional libraries.

I would be most appreciative if someone could explain/point me to the explanation of how to do that.

Thanks in advance.
