    • Search File System button: Scans your entire file system for the missing samples.

  • Resolve Manually:

    • Point to Folder button: Sets a specific folder on your computer to scan for the missing samples.

    • Point to Files button: Lets you point directly to the new location of a sample.

  • Options:

    • Check for Duplicates checkbox: Loads the first file that matches the file name of a missing sample. When you enable this option, duplicates will be collected, and another dialog will guide you through selecting the right missing sample for your Kit.

    • Allow Alternative File Types checkbox: Allows use of alternative file types with the same name (for example, if you converted a sample to another file type).

    • Apply to other Battery Instances checkbox: Forwards resolved conflicts to other instances of BATTERY, so you don't have to resolve missing samples issues more than once.
