I have just registered on this forum to ask about the same issue Smiley

I have previously downloaded full blockchain (~247Gb of ./blocks/) and since moving to the new computer can't make Bitcoin Core to pick it up.

Tried
Code:
-reindex
however the client still downloads from approximately 2012.

Is there a way to debug what exactly is wrong with the cache and fix it in a targeted manner instead of re-downloading >200Gb of data?
