Erne,

I believe this is NOT fault of Valentina, because inside of Valentina db I
never store any files reference.

So Valentina simply cannot wish the old volume.

I think that this is in your app is stored somewhere links to old volume.
Check this. May be prefs?

Than more that you say you have ONE file mode. So why Valentina need search
something else?
