Thank you. Highfield
Seems to be a clear message (red) to me.

Open that path (green) in Windows Explorer. Can you access and navigate around various folders as a test.

If the test fails (expected ), use the Windows disk repair utility to 'Fix file system errors' on the drive (was G:, but may change depending on what devices are currently attached. )
