1 footage file required to render, I don’t see any footage missing.
I’m trying to render out my composition. When I go to Render it, I get a warning “1 footage file required to render composition “renderComp” is missing.”
The composition is named “renderComp” I’ve looked through the Project bin and can’t find anything missing, everything in the preview is fine too. When I render with the missing file some layers seem to be missing. I can’t figure out which layers are missing to give the rendered result. Is there a way to check missing footage files easily?

Yes. I don’t have AE open so I may be a little off, but its fairly obvious so I’ll be close enough to find it.
Select the main project window where all your footage and comps are and go to Find from the File menu. When the window comes up, check the “missing footage” box and replace whatever it finds in the comp window. Then, keep hitting “find next” and replace everything that is missing.
Since it sounds like AE is telling your the comp itself is missing, you should also re-add the comp to the render queue and delete the first instance of it since AE will sometimes give you errors if you have the same comp in the render queue twice, if there was an issue with the comp when your first put it in the queue or something similar.
