"Unable to find the specific file" when trying to add the Termbase

Question

Hello guys, 
 Whenever I want to add a termbase, I get the error message "Unable to find the specific file". I tried this solution: https://gateway.sdl.com/apex/communityknowledge?articleName=000001769 . 
 I use Windows 11 Home N via Virtualbox to be able to work from Linux Ubuntu. Maybe there's some access issue. On my virtual machine it works, but not if I have copied the termbase to Linux Ubuntu disk partition and when I try to select the termbase from there. I use the latest version of Trados Studio 2022. 
 Any idea? :) 
 Thanks in advance! -Olav

Paul I solved it by selecting the TM under "This PC" i.e. "See arvuti" folder structure of Windows Explorer. The error was because I chose the TM via "Network" i.e. "Võrk" folder structure of Windows Explorer.

Windows Explorer sidebar showing 'This PC' labeled as 'See arvuti', 'CD-drive (D:)', and 'Network' labeled as 'V rk'.

 Could be related to using network addresses as opposed to mapping the drives to a windows drive letter. Could be related to synching issues between the shares you are using.

Trados Studio > 2. Trados Studio
