SOLVED Context: In this instance, prior to re-installing Windows, my special "Videos" folder with the unique icon (image below) was assigned to a folder on a separate storage drive (F:\) than my Windows boot/main drive (C:\). This "Videos" folder is unique and when Windows was re-installed it defaulted the "Videos" location back on the C drive but my separate storage F drive still had the "Videos" folder as well. This created what I can only assume was a permission conflict which was suspected after I tried to "Save As" the project file on the F drive and getting a prompt saying I don't have write access. I was able to confirm this by moving the project file to my "Downloads" folder on my C drive and was able to save my voice over clips without issue. Solution: Move ALL project folders/assets out of the special "Videos" folder into a diferent location. Example: My "Videos" folder was located at F:\Videos\ so I moved my so it looked like F:\. I then deleted the "Videos" folder and made a new one that wasn't associated with the unique "Videos" folder Windows uses. Appendix:This is the unique icon Windows uses for its "Videos" folder. There are other similar unique folders Windows uses for things like Pictures, Music, etc.

Update: All records are being saved into the project folder but NOT inserted into the actual project timeline and I'm occasionally having a clip get saved into the timline.
