Files moved, but Zotero can't locate the moved file

Files are moved properly, but Zotero does not seem to track the moved files - I get the standard broken attachment message, "The attached file could not be found at the following path..."

Is that error message really blank (no path shown) ? That is, the message never shows an actual path at which it thinks the file should be ?

If it's blank, that's often because there is a Linked Attachment Base Directory set on another computer, but not the current one. So Zotero does not know where to look for the file.

A file path had been shown (located Zotero's default local file storage structure), I had just removed it and replaced with "..." for brevity, sorry for the confusion!

So is the path shown the old path where the file was before it was moved ?

Yes, it was the old path
