Ae keeps missing files everytime - even after re linking! 25.3.2 V

Hi, 

Scince updating to the latest version  25.3.2 and something weird happened.

I re named a file and it went missing of course. So I re linked it and saved the Ae files.

But every single time I open the Ae file, I keep getting the same missing files msg and I have to re link it EVERY SIGNLE TIME. I tried saving a new file version but it's the same.

I just installed a fresh windows 11 today and got the same thing!!

Help please

25.3.2 only contains a fix for handling PDF files that were crashing AE. What version did you upgrade from? 

Are the files on a really long file path? There was a report recently that relinking is not working where the filepaths are over 255 characters.

I made the file path shorter and it fixed it. Thank you!
