Fail reaching a saved file

Hi everyone, although I have a file located on my computer, the JabRef can not find it although it’s located at the right place,( somehow the \ changes to / - maybe that is the problem?)

Hi,

maybe this:

Linked PDFs not opening anymore (v5.2)

So what helped for me is activating, in my Preferences → Linked files → ‘Search and store files relative to library file location’. Now both relative and absolute file paths work again like a charm

can help you too?
