If the editor is looking for a file in the standard Program Files folder, Windows may redirect it to Program Files (x86), or worse, a virtualized folder in AppData that the user cannot easily access. Consequently, the editor looks in the wrong folder, fails to locate the .ros file, and returns "File Not Found."
