    Do you have a backup of your catalog? If so you can use that. You may need to tell Capture One again where to find the files using the Locate folder... command om the File menu.

    So restore the backup of your catalog in the place where you want it to live, then open it, then use the Locate Folder... command to tell it where to find the folders (if necessary).

    Or, if possible restore the back up the location that has the same path and you will be all good straight up. I had a drive fail and I switched in the backup drive and mapped it to the same drive letter (I'm on Windows). C1 didn't skip a beat and just worked (with a slightly older version of a few files).
