Package and copy the files to another computer and remember the path on that PC.

Just restart the D5 Render.
How to keep the local library when reinstalling D5?
Local assets, custom IES, LUT, HDR and other project temporary files are stored in the workspace folder of the software's installation directory by default.
If you override the installation, the original directory will be automatically retained without additional settings. It takes a short time to check if the file has been downloaded when using the asset, and once it has been downloaded, there is no need to re-download it.
If you are uninstalling and then reinstalling, you will need to reassign the storage location to the assets file in the upper right corner of the D5 Render in the “Menu” > “Preferences” > “Assets Storage” > "Select Location", then restart D5 Render.
