Server Migration - ERROR [Microservices:StorageService] Failed to read upload/encoded-video/.immich:

I have migrated my Windows immich instance from an old to a new PC. The setup on the old pc was that ALL files related to immich were on dedicated external hard drive. d:

I followed the steps on this page. https://immich.app/docs/administration/backup-and-restore (windows / powershell tab)

Everything went totally smoothly, yet I couldn't load immich in the web browser, a look in the immich server logs has:
2025-01-01 16:54:04 [Nest] 7  - 01/01/2025, 9:54:04 AM   ERROR [Microservices:StorageService] Failed to read upload/encoded-video/.immich: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'upload/encoded-video/.immich'
2025-01-01 16:54:04 microservices worker error: Error: Failed to read "<UPLOAD_LOCATION>/encoded-video/.immich - Please see https://immich.app/docs/administration/system-integrity#folder-checks for more information."
2025-01-01 16:54:04 microservices worker exited with code 1
2025-01-01 16:54:04 Killing api process


It seems to my novice eye that the code is looking for the folder "encoded-video" in the "upload" folder, yet to my knowledge it has never been there.
