Sounds alot but a 30 sec' job.. Terry.

Make a backup of this directory so when you have a computer failure, the reinstall will be easier. Chas P

As was mentioned here you should create your own folder and copy them there. You can load them into Photoshop by simply double clicking them from your file manager. My life is like one big RAW file....way too much post processing needed.
