I can't find my project anymore

PostThu Dec 24, 2020 12:37 pm

Good Morning everyone,

since some hours I can not find my project anymore. I'm working on this project since September and I have saved it on an exteral Hard Disk. Once I open DaVinci and go to "open project" I don't find it in the folder I've saved it. If I go manually (outside DaVinci) to this folder I see a .db file.
I always work with 2 external Hard Disk, in the first there are my my projects and in the second one there is the program (dumb decision?). Now I can open just the two projects I saved in the second Hard Disk, it seems like DaVinci don't recognize my first Hard Disk anymore.
Did I lose my project?

You should put ur database on the system drive, ie a permanent drive, same for the program.

Media can go on an external drive

My guess is ur using Windows and the drive letter has changed so the path to the drive with the database is now not linking

Try power down reboot with any other drives u might have added removed

Btw, v16.?
