"Locate" button doesn't open file browser
Hi,
I'm running Zotero Standalone with Zotfile. I have a custom directory where I let Zotfile store my attachments. I migrated computers and when I try to open attachments (that I know exist and can find in the File Explorer), I get the "File Not Found" popup. When I click "Locate..." the pop-up disappears but nothing else happens. On the old computer, this usually opened a file browsing window and I was able to navigate to the file to select it.
Any thoughts on what the problem might be and how to fix this?
Thanks!

This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Before commenting here, you should strongly consider starting a new discussion instead. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
Use Zutilo to check where Zotero is currently looking for the files and then fix that location in bulk:

Afterwards you'll want to set up relative links in the advanced tab in Zotero.
