making iTunes look at library in shared folder

Had to swap the HDD in my MBP to an SSD. Trying to restore the iTunes library from a back up.


Previously, had the iTunes library in /users/shared/Music/ITunes. If I recall correctly, all I needed to do was to remove the default iTunes library of a user and start iTunes which will prompt the user to select where the iTunes folder is.


Now, I've tried removing the default library then start iTunes but it does not ask where the iTunes library is and just creates a new library.


I've already change the iTunes→Preferences→Advanced→ location to the shared folder


How can I get iTunes to ask where the library is so it will show that content?


Thanks



MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.13
