Hi I keep getting the following message. 

I have cleared my Cache and ensured both Corel Draw and my Computer System are up to date but it still keeps appearing. Anyone know how to get rid of it?

Corel Draw V 24.5.0.731

MacBook Air: macOS Sonoma 14.1.2 (23B92)

Please reconnect the device that has the file location, or choose a new folder. In the meantime, content will be saved in the Corel default location. You can move the content after the file location is restored.
