How do I mark all content as "viewed" after re-importing content DB metadata

Hi all.
I recently reimported metadata for my content DB, but now, all of the file icons have "new" written on them.  How do I mark everything in my database as "viewed" so that the "new" label disappears?  Thank you for your time.

    Ctrl + A to select them all, right-click menu: Group Assets as > None.

    What view do I need to be in to see them all?  I only ever use Content Library -> View as Tree.  Thank you.

    Smart Content or Content Libaray... no matter where you're, just right-click on the selected items > Group Assets as... > None.

    Are you saying that I'd need to do this one folder/category at a time?  Because I'm asking if there is a way to do this for everything in the DB at once because crawling though each folder/category one at a time is not practical.

    Ah, I misunderstood a bit, you've re-imported lots of products ~~

    If, so... the standard way: when re-importing metadata, uncheck Group as New and Group Contents as New...  You have to re-import metadata again.

    Ah!  Got it.  So I'll probably need to wipe the DB first before re-importing?  Thank you Crosswind.

    Yea, you can tick Reset Database option in the above screenshot to clear all data in cms database firstly... before doing re-import metadata.

    Go to the Smart Content pane, in the Products tab make sure the All or Installed Install State Filter at the bottom is active and that Filter By Context is unchecked, select all, right-click>Grouip Products & Assets As>None
