A stupid move detached IMatch from my database.

Because you have no dedicated discussion board for stupid moves, I am posting this here.  Running IMatch 2021.18.4 but not using it regularly.

After replacing my 8-y-old main data drive with a pair of 4 T disks in a mirror raid, I failed to account for the complexities of moving the database and tried to just relocate the folders. Disaster.

Upon restoring the old disk to the machine with its old letter, I tried to recover a pre-move back-up using Pack 'n Go, the results are attached as an image. Where can I go from here?

Pack and Go tells us that you have restored the contents to their original folders.
The database is in D:\IMatchBak\Pin22.imd5.
Is this the database you work with. "IMatchBak" sounds like some backup database, not the real database...?

If you have moved your files to another disk (or replaced a disk), follow the steps here: Off-line Folders and Files
