Don't remove sources that can't be found

Currently if an HD I use is offline and I click on a folder on that HD in Bridge I get a message that the folder can't be found and Bridge removes it from the list.

That means I have to readd when I plug in the HD.

That's wasteful.

Change the message to "Can't find that. Should I remove it from the list Yes No"

I don't see how to directly reply to ExUSA.

I think the problem is people who don't use external hard drives don't run into this problem.  So laptop users and most folks using a desktop that only have one external drive for backups don't see how much extra work it can cause.

I've got this one high speed external drive that is constantly going offline so this issue is one that I run into a lot.

We went round and round on this issue in pre-release a while back. I agree with your idea 100%.
