hi scott.
i have not this problem.
but try this way.
firstly make sure that your file is not hidden and second in type of
files select all files.

Hi Scott
My first thought was that you may be copying an Audacity file without
the associated folder. Even if you did that, Audacity should still try
to open the file before muttering darkly.
Perhaps your system is trying to tell you that it is not a good idea to
put files onto the root of a drive. Less of an issue when it is not the
primary drive, but this obsessive doesn't like the idea.

Hi Jean. Yes, I can see those files on the root so it makes no sense
that they can't be seen in the open file dialog of audacity. Leave it
to me to have the really weird problems.

Can you see files using Windows Explorer or, if you are in another
program, can you see a file there that you should see? For example,
if you save a text file in Notepad, can you then see the file in
Notepad if you look for it? I wouldn't fool around with permissions
until it was demonstrated that that might be a cause of the problem.

That's an interesting idea, do you know what I should type into the

Hmpf
You could try to change the folder settings when you're in the root
(with no items selected).
There may also be some Powershell commands that you can use in the
console window in order to check and update the attributes of this
root directory.
(Shift+Context menu with "D" selected.)

on other drives, it sees files on the root so it makes everything even
more of a mystery.

WINRE is probably a recovery partition installed by the manufacturer.
Are you saying that all files are displayed as long as they aren't
located at the top-level (D:\)?
Seems a bit strange, as if the drive were a hidden folder but not the
subfolders.

<mailto:audacity4blind-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>Hi Robert. Yes it shows folders and files within folders. D: is my
2 tb data drive, not the main os drive.
When I run defrag, it shows my solid state drive which it says need
ot be optimized but I've also read that it's not a good idea to do
that, d, f, g, h which is my sd card, and another solid state drive
called WINRE which I've never heard of.
This computer came with windows 10 so it wasn't an upgrade machine.
I hope that helps and thanks for any further assistance.

It just means listing all files with all file extensions.
Are folders shown?
Is C:\ your main hard drive and D:\ your data drive?
Are you sure that there aren't any drive letter conflicts? I ask
because my secondary drive has the letter E because D is reserved for
the optical drive.
Before upgrading to Windows 10, it was 'I' because all card readers
were also listed before it.
What is shown under e.g. "Optimize Drive".
It should list your hard drives and possibly some flash drives.

<mailto:audacity4blind-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>yes, that shows nothing. Curious, what does typing *.* do or what
is it supposed to demonstrate? thanks for the info.

If you type *.* in the file name field, does it show nothing?

<mailto:audacity4blind-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>An update.
I uninstalled the old windows explorer program, restarted and the
results are the same.
I forgot to also mention that when I export a file, it writes to
the root of the drive with no problems.

Hello.
I have found lately that audacity will not recognize files that I
have on the rot of an internal drive when I go to open them.
Here's what happens.
I copy a file to the root of d: which is my 2 tb internal drive on
windows
10 and when I go to open and browse to the location, I see all my
folders on the root drive but not the file that I copied there. It
doesn't matter what file type it is, it just doesn't see anything
in that location where a single file or group of files outside of a
directory are concerned.
the puzzling thig is that it used to work but I am unaware of any
windows update that would have made such a thing impossible.
Now, I did install something called OldNewExplorer which makes the
windows explorer look and behave more like windows 7 and I suppose
that could have been when the problems began but I honestly can't
imagine why this would be related.
I'm wondering if anyone has any thoughts? I'm going to uninstall
this app and see if that makes a difference but I'd still be
interested in knowing why such a thing would happen?
Thanks for your thoughts.
Scott
