Hello,
So I wouldn't have to take up space on my pc hard drive, I reviewed my videos and made playlists from an external drive. However, I would like the playlists only on my pc hard drive. Is there any way to migrate the playlists i created frm the external drive to my pc? Any advice on this is appreciated, as I do not want to have to create the playlists all over again.

As what I understand, a playlist is just a list that links to each video file. It doesn't contain any video files inside/together.
It could be useless if you only move the playlist files but not video files from one folder to another folder.

Once you moved video files to other location (external to local), you have to re-link new locations of all the video files to each playlist one by one. It might cause bigger trouble than re-creating a new list from scratch.

I don't use playlist.
But, I think you may need to find an exclusive playlist editing app to help you clean those mass if those editors do help you re-link video files with more semi/fully automatic features.
