Pool thinks audio files exist when they don't, replacing them doesn't work

[IFM]

I have had a situation where I didn’t realize the audio files in the pool were being put in the wrong folder as the project, so after moving them the hard link seems to have broken.

The pool seems to think they still exist in the original location and even if I try to replace the exact files it still refuses to use them and just says files under construction. Is there any way to re-link this files so that my hours of editing are not wasted?

When that happens it’s usually best to leave the audio files where they are and archive the project to make a clean copy. When you’re done, throw away the old project.

I actually tried that and I get an error when trying to archive the project.
