SP 2016 - Move files using Content and Structure brought over extra columns

Question

Per a user request, I just moved some files from one library to another using Content and Structure. The source library has more columns than the target library. The files brought over the extra columns. Now when the user tries to change the metadata in the columns which belong in the target library, nothing happens.

I used Content and Structure because preserving the version history is important to the user.

1. What can we do to enable metadata changes on the moved files?
2. Is there a way to execute this move that does not cause these problems?
