Yes. One of the key features of LinkFixer Advanced is its ability to repair broken file links whether files were moved or copied during a data migration.

How it works

Even if files remain accessible in their original location, the Cure process can:
  1. Detect broken links in parent files.
  2. Match them to the copied files in the new location using LinkIDs.
  3. Automatically update the links to point to the correct copied files.

Why it matters

  1. Works for both moved and copied files.
  2. Ensures links stay valid after migrations.
  3. Saves time by repairing links in bulk, automatically.
