Hi,
Most likely Paths in playlists pointed to paths on OLD PC.

I suspect that you copied files in same paths as on old PC? If yes then I would suggest that you also copy MM5.DB to new PC and after you copy MM5 should recognize playlists as on OLD PC. For final step of migration you can do two things:
a) If you are not sure that paths are same Select all tracks in all collections -> File -> Locate Moved Missing -> and poin destination to path on new PC -> Wait for result.
b) Use Collection Location tree node -> Right click on Media from old PC (It will not have Drive letter) -> Properties and assign correct drive letter.
Best regards,
