Transferring Tags Conundrum

Hi Guys,

I have an issues that I couldn't solve through the help file or other posts.

First of all I would like to be confirmed that there is no way (script or else) to preserve Tags in copy operations.

Apart from that I need a little help with the following: I copied a large amount of data from one disk to another and of course tags didn't get copied.

To avoid moving all the data again I have been looking for a way to move just the tagged files (which are a minority) and be sure they are moved into the exact folder they belong to.
I have been trying with various search combinations to no avail: any suggestion on this please?

Thank you

There have been a couple of topics on this. This post is the latest and it references two others further down in the thread.

Thanks Kodyman,

I had read one of those threads but at present I was looking for a way to avoid moving all the data again to preserve tags.
I tried to look into the tag.dat file too but there is very little info (only the colours' tags one).
