Relink Projects in Filmora (Windows)

This guide helps you reconnect media files when Filmora can no longer find them where they were originally. This usually happens when you move, rename, delete, or store a video, image, or audio file on a different drive.

Instead of rebuilding the project, you can point Filmora to the file's new location or replace a missing file with another one. This keeps the existing edits in place and helps restore the project with fewer missing-media problems. If you click the changed save location or a deleted project file in Project File, the window will prompt you that the project no longer exists in the saved location.
