Relink to proxies in backup library

I replaced a camera angle in a multicam project and it screwed up all the edits in the project. I have a back up version of the library from earlier tonight, so I loaded it, but all the links to the proxies are missing. I saw the suggestion to retranscode, but the proxies are in the original library. Will it see them there or will it actually retranscode all the videos?

MacBook Pro, macOS Sierra (10.12.6), 2.5 gHz model i7 mid 2015 16gb ram

Just select your clips and recreate the proxies from scratch. You'd have it done already, and you'd be on your way. If proxies were made already and lost their link, you can't relink them, just recreate them. It's fast, easy, and old copies get deleted.
