No, dll files are 'Dynamic Link Libraries' and contain executable code
<br>that is needed to make programs run.
<br><br>The digikam configuration files are supposed to be
<br><br>~/Local Settings/digikamrc
<br>~/Local Settings/digikam_tagsmanagerrc
<br>~/Local Settings/kipipluginsrc
<br>~/Local Settings/kipirc
<br>~/Local Settings/showfotorc
<br>~/Local Settings/digikam/*

<br>>
<br>> 64-bit Windows 7 Pro
<br>>
<br>> I have just installed a new internal secondary HDD, strictly for my
<br>> photo
<br>> collection and gave it drive letter "A"
<br>> At the same time, for a back-up, I added an identical HDD in an external
<br>> enclosure and assigned it "Z"
<br>>
<br>> All of my digiKam collections/albums are associated with the old
<br>> out-grown
<br>> external HDD with drive letter "P"
<br>>
<br>> In "settings" > Configure digiKam > Collections, I have tried every
<br>> possible
<br>> trick that I could think of to change the old drive letter to the
<br>> new and
<br>> nothing I have tried will allow me to edit the folder path.
<br>>
<br>> If I could just change all of those "P" to "A", everything else
<br>> remains the
<br>> same.
<br>>
<br>> I have decided this is just not possible; if it isn't possible, then it
<br>> should be; and if it is possible, then I would sure like to know
<br>> what I am
<br>> not seeing.
<br>>
<br>> If I hi-lite a collection and double-click, it will allow me to edit the
<br>> collection name, but nothing I do will allow me to edit the folder path.
<br>>
<br>> Thanks for reading.
