I know it’s been a while, sorry…

If this still occurs - can you give us some more context, please?

What are you doing to reproduce this behavior?

The error message says it cannot find the “root folder”, is there something special about your file system? Maybe you have been using previously with network location or USB stick, which is no longer connected?
