Relinking missing/lost images in the catalog to the new location on a hard drive - create a batch locate option

What problem do you see this solving?

Sometimes I have to move a batch of images from one hard drive to another. If I do this, C1 does not find the images anymore and I have to re-import them again and delete them in the catalogue. In Lightroom it is so easy to re-link images from a new location and they have the batch re-linking option as well. It would be a big time saver and a really useful feature

When was the last time you were affected by this lack of functionality, or specific tool?

It is a big problem if a hard drive has an issue and stops working, I have everything on a back up drive, but I can't re-link the images from the second drive in C1. So I have to re-import everything again and I will loose all my adjustments.

Current workaround

Are you using any workarounds or other solutions to achieve your goals in Capture One?

I have to do it file by file, we need a batch locate option for re-linking files
