Do a backup w/o media and use that. Since the paths are the same or relative (on the same machine), you only have to set the Media path in preferences. The media should still be accessible until the Thumbdrive is moved to another machine. Of course, if the root problem is a bad media file or an overload of media, then the problem will persist. -Brian On Mon, Nov 22, 2021 at 5:04, David Lynch<[email protected]> wrote: Thank you.
