I use ACL 16 with Windows 7. Recently I find that some saved projects do not seem to exist. They were saved as normal and appear on the list of projects but fail to open. I have tried clearing old projects to make more space but this is no answer. Can anybody help?
Hi, welcome to the Magix forums.
You say some saved projects "do not seem to exist". I strongly suspect that it is the audio files used in the particular projects that do not still exist in the same location as they did when the project was last saved.
IOW, a "project" file contains all the data needed to convert/alter/improve the original audio file, but not the actual file itself. If the project file cannot load the audio file from whichever location it was stored at the actual moment the project was last saved, the project cannot be opened, run or edited.
Do you receive any error message when these projects fail? Something to the effect that "[name of file].wav" cannot be opened/found/loaded, or similar? If so, you have moved the file to a different storage location or, worse still, you have deleted it from your computer.😭😭
If I have guessed wrongly what the problem is please come back with much more detail about your computer, what you have tried with the program and the precise wording of any error message you see.
