I am moving a 416GB music database from one Dell machine to a newer Dell, both are running Windows 7 and MC 18.0.206.  To transfer the data I am using a Maxtor stand alone drive. 

On the old machine all data has been moved to the Maxtor and MC displays the complete tag details including ratings.  I have transferred the data using MC to the new machine and get 236GB (9567 files) that are in the Unassigned File with no tag information including no track numbers.  I have run the Library Tools -> Update Tags (from Library) to no avail. 

As a work around I tried deleting all the music files from the new machine and then transferred the songs into the Music directory using Explorer and then from there used MC to import the library.  Same results with a massive Unassigned File. Have I missed something on the Support FOrums that can repair this issue?
