I started using Docker containers last week, so this is all new to me.

I have a huge library of pictures in another drive (HDD) on my PC and I tried to setup Immich to index those.

I’m using Windows, Docker is installed on C: drive and I gave Docker permission to check the D: drive, but I can’t make Immich find it when adding an external library.

I edited the yml file, including D:\Pictures but I get an error when trying to add the path in Immich.

Tried to search around, but without luck.

Someone knows how can I do this? Thank you :)

    im not sure, but maybe when you specify path, docker thinks theres two paths separated by :, also in linux to specify path you use forward slash /, so maybe puting in quote maarks would work, e.g. "D:\Pictures":/pictures/ and then looking for /pictures/ inside the container

    You shohld also try checking logs when adding external library on immich with docker logs --follow immich_server
