I think we did a similar question where we had to change data sources, and I chose the right-click method. I hope that’s still valid for this scenario!

I’m a bit confused about the Catalog View option. I don’t recall using that for fixing links, but it might be useful if you need to change multiple paths at once.

I feel like the option with the red exclamation point is the one we practiced in class for fixing broken links quickly. It seems more straightforward.
