    <p>Hi Tony,</p>
    <p>You can unzip the qgz file and change the text in the qgs files.
      qgs are text files. Afterwards, you can create the zip again with
      the qgz extension or open the qgs file directly.</p>
    <p>I hope it helps,</p>
    <p>Jorge<br>

        <p class="MsoNormal">Hi All<o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">I am sure I am not the first to ponder how
          to deal with this.  I have loads, thousands likely, of project
          files in a series of folders and subfolders.  I need to move
          those files and folders to a new location to enable other
          staff to use the project files and their associated shp files,
          geo packages, rasters etc.<o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">Essentially, I am shifting my entire
          collection of GIS work to a shared location for others to
          start using, so moving from a sole operator to a shared
          environment.<o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">In my old MapInfo days, I would simply do a
          bulk search and replace over the workspace files (text-based
          so this is easy) and change the paths that need changing and
          all would be ok.<o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">As qgz files are not easily modified
          through a text editor, are there any tools out there to enable
          bulk changing of file paths in those files? <o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">Any other approaches?<o:p></o:p></p>
