Sample content access after new drive installation...

Hello, Recently installed a new SSD on the computer and its great... I cloned the drive and it boots up fine. Sonar works fine. Only issue I am having is with some content. When I try to access the sample content from the browser(docked on the lower right), I get a dialog box message that indicates "The selected content location preset referenced missing folder: H:\SONAR Platinum " The drive letters changed after installing the SSD. I figured I could go into the prefs and change some of the folder locations, but I didn't see any option for the sample content. Maybe its just a matter of reassigning the sample content folder? If not, do I need to reinstall SPLAT? Thanks... #1 1 Reply Related Threads

I think the best way around this issue is to re-name the content drive, or "re-assign" it, to be exact (just re-naming doesn't change the path), in Computer Management, to what it was before installing the SSD, and where Sonar is still looking for them. I would not change the Sonar content preferences. Just don't. It can lead to a horrible mess. If you already have other drives with the old Sonar content letter assigned to one of them, you'll have to re-name/assign the conflicting one before re-assigning the SSD letter to match your previous content drive. Hope this helps, or at least makes sense. Stuff. #2

Sample content access after new drive installation...

Hello,

Recently installed a new SSD on the computer and its great... I cloned the drive and it boots up fine. Sonar works fine. Only issue I am having is with some content. When I try to access the sample content from the browser(docked on the lower right), I get a dialog box message that indicates "The selected content location preset referenced missing folder: H:\SONAR Platinum "

The drive letters changed after installing the SSD. I figured I could go into the prefs and change some of the folder locations, but I didn't see any option for the sample content. Maybe its just a matter of reassigning the sample content folder? If not, do I need to reinstall SPLAT?

Thanks...
