The following file could not be found in the specified location. CANT READ LOCATION.
Posted by Julian Stopher on May 21, 2016 at 2:05 pmHi all,
I’m having trouble reading the following file location in this image:
I need the exact location of the file because I have multiple files with the same name, but I can’t read the file location because the help window is too small.
Does anyone know how I can identify the original file location?
Any help would be appreciated!

May 21, 2016 at 3:13 pmSelect “Search for missing file” and then select the drive where files are located. It should come up with a list of files matching that name.

Finding the file is not the problem I’m having, because I know exactly where the files are.
The problem is I have multiple files with the same name, but they contain different video.
The only information I have for choosing the correct file is the help window in my original post. It details the original file location, but I cannot see the entire location because the window is too small.
My problem is with viewing the full file location, not with locating the actual file.

May 21, 2016 at 3:46 pmGuess I’m still confused (not unusual) about the exact problem you are having. Regardless,
The problem is I have multiple files with the same name, but they contain different video.
This practice is not a good idea. For the future, using a file rename utility, suggest you add an index as a suffix so that each file with the same name has a unique index number. In this way, such problems would be avoided.

May 21, 2016 at 4:15 pmYes that works very well, thank you!
For those who read this thread , click on ‘specify a new location’ and when windows file explorer opens up, the original location will be at the top of the explorer window.
Thank you very much!
