Solved:IDS_FILE_MISSING Error in SD3

I moved my samples in SD3. I did the registry hack thing and it worked with Dimension Pro, but I get this error message when trying to load the preset drumkits. Am i screwed?

Hi Dub, did you ever get an answer to this issue ?  I have the same problem today since moving the samples too.
Thx.

SOLVED : IDS_FILE_MISSING Error in SD3 2012/06/27 04:25:43 (permalink) ☄ Helpful
I managed to fix this !  I found a file which lists where the SD3 Programs are to be found - it is the PROGRAM.LST file, and is to be found in the SD3/Contents/Programs folder.  I had the original path in that file, and (thankfully) it is a text file which can be edited using Notepad.  I did a "search for old path" and replace with new path.

BEWARE & DISCLAIMER:  The text in the file uses a space as filler, so that paths look something like this "e x a m p l e   u s i n g   s p a c e s   a s   f i l l e r".  Edit at your own risk - make a backup copy of the file before you edit.

HTH.

Just to let new troubleshooters know - I figured out that you can just delete the programs.lst file and it will be recreated for you (do make a backup just in case).

2+4 ~ 5?!? Why don't I get the math behind DSP programming?!
