Workspace : Missing Files : Opening a Project with Missing Files : Automatically Find and Relink
 
Automatically Find and Relink
Automatically Find and Relink is the simplest method to relink projects to required media, but it provides no way to compare files or verify links. This option cannot be undone. The Automatically Find and Relink option does the following:
Searches all Performance volumes for all missing items with matching Name, ID, Format, and Length
Links missing items to the first matches found
Commits links for all items possible
*Links, once committed, cannot be undone once the project is saved. The only way to revert to previous links is to close the project without saving changes.
If some files remain unlinked, the Task window opens and a failed task appears in the Paused Tasks pane. Double-click the Task icon to open the Relink window and manually find and relink files.
*Even if all of the missing files are later found and relinked, the failed task remains in the Task Window. Like all failed tasks, it must be manually selected and deleted. See “About Failed Tasks” on page 174.
