What are the File name, the Directory name and Path?

Are you using Projects (*.ipj) or are you using Vault?

Check if your file name or folder path where the file is in has non-ASCII symbols and/or Cyrillic alphabet letters, for example, then remove those and try again.

Hi! Does the total file path including the file name exceed 256 characters?

Many thanks!
