    What would be the best way to do this on Windows?

    I have a library setup called "Movies"
    Under that Library, one of the paths is "E:\_moviedir\silentfilms"
    I want to move all those movies in that path to "G:\_moviedir\silentfilms"

    Do I just add path "g:\_moviedir\silentfilms" to the "Movie" Library and then start moving them, leaving "E:\_moviedir\silentfilms" alone in the library config until the move is over?

    Can I just shut down the server, move the files and edit AppData\Local\jellyfin\root\default\Movies\Silentfilms.mblink and just replace the path there to  "g:\_moviedir\silentfilms" and run a scan?
