My recent projects aren't opening?

Post by theinfinate » Tue Sep 05, 2017 9:52 pm

Has anyone had this problem before.....I have recently taken the hard drive out that i keep my projects on and put it back in. When i go to open my recent projects the little spinning circle comes up and gets stuck forever and never opens. I can go to the actual folder and double click the project file which does work which makes it strange. I have cleared the recent list but still the projects that i have opened after clearing the list won't open via the open recent set list??

can you copy a project to your harddrive and open it from there?
