i figured what the hell and selected all the options...is it easier to find these tracks if they are freezed and flattened??

Hi thank you but no, this only works on some of the projects, not even close to half of them...all of my live sets are 100% audio tracks, no outside sources whatsoever, and i "collect all" and saved each set to my Kingston flash drive, then loaded it into my newer pc, opened Live, and the tracks ...
