Rekordbox Library ( Help needed )

Hello there

I've been trying to clean my huge library for a while now (31k songs)

and i ended up with 1 folder includes all the playlists i need (NEW ) (9-10k songs )

and another (OLD) folder with all the stuff i want to leave behind

and of course some tracks are in the collection that are not even assigned to anything

How would it be possible to move the (NEW) folder to a new clean library of rekordbox without loosing ( Cues, Colors, Ratings ) and without having ( Tracks already exists in collection ) error

PS: i've trying to drag the songs out of new to designated folders outside and rename the (OLD collection folder outside ) so it reads all tracks as missing then relocate from (NEW) folder. but i had the error i mentioned above ( Track Already Exists In Collection )

I've tried to move my whole library to an external, cleaned my rekordbox collection and tried to import the (NEW) folder from external but the Paths of songs still reads that it's on the external

I need your help regarding so if anyone can give an input for the best Steps to take to achieve that.

UPDATE!!

I did the following

I dragged and dropped Playlists from NEW From the SSD external to a Locale folder on my mac to dedicated folders same as playlists

Removed the SSD and displayed all missing and made rekordbox Relocate from the NEW folder on my Mac

It did what is supposed to do and now all my paths are from my mac and not the external

Exported library as XML for a trial xml file to have backup

So now my library is coming from that NEW folder that i have with the music i want and nothing else

I think it is working now i am not sure need to test the waters with it

If there is any other way to do it From ground 0 i can restore everything as it was and do it again.

Please let me know
