Relink Serato tracks after music files move

Serato Track Relinker is aimed at a narrow missing-file problem: the music still exists, but its folder path changed. Select a supported Serato 4 library and the folders that now contain the audio, scan, then review old and proposed paths before choosing which links to repair. The music files themselves are not moved or edited by the relinker.

The first supported scope is intentionally limited to an internal-drive library and unchanged filenames. A suggested path is not proof that two files contain the same audio, so uncertain matches remain for a person to choose. The app asks for Serato to be closed before a repair.

Availability

This page previews one of nine focused tools planned for a single forthcoming Mac app. The tools are separate workflows inside that app, not browser utilities or nine separate downloads. A public download is not available, and no release date has been announced.

How it works

A clear, reviewable workflow

01

Select the supported library

Choose a Serato 4 Library folder on the same internal drive as the music paths being reviewed.

02

Scan and compare paths

Look through missing entries, old locations and possible new paths for files that kept their names.

03

Choose repairs explicitly

After closing Serato, select the links to update. The reviewed repair has a backup and an undo option.

Compatibility note

External drives, renamed files, older library formats, streaming entries and deleted audio are outside the stated scope. This tool cannot recover a file that no longer exists. Compatibility checks after reopening in Serato are still underway.

Useful now

Use Serato’s built-in lost-file guidance today

Serato documents its own Relocate Lost Files workflow, which is available for current troubleshooting. Read the official steps and keep the folder paths you selected visible while comparing them with any proposed relink.

Questions and answers

About Serato Track Relinker

Can it recover deleted music files?

No. The tool only reviews links to audio that still exists at a new path. It does not undelete, download or reconstruct missing audio.

Does it support renamed files or external drives?

The stated first scope is unchanged filenames and a Serato 4 library on the same internal drive. Renamed files, older formats and external-drive migrations are excluded.

Does it move the music files?

No. The relinker updates selected paths after review; the audio files remain where they are.
