What is wrong with Ableton that it misses media files from time to time? The problem occurs regardless the version. And Ableton is a culprit because the sample files are there in the folder. They are not moved, edited or opened by another app. Ableton just stopped seeing them suddenly. That’s it.
Now it happened in Live 12 in Windows 11. When I open Manage Files and then Manage Set or Project and use Automatic Search Ableton is showing me five candidates. Candidates look the same. Physically there is only one file in the folder. I use this sample five times in the track.
What is wrong with Ableton and how to avoid and repair the set and project?
Is there any definite solution?
