[GNC] Scary moment

[R Losey]

Yes, I have an iMac (pretty new), a Win10 machine, and an older Linux
machine (Ubuntu 22.04 LTS). The file - the only one I use - is stored on a
NAS disk that all of the machines can access. Nothing has gone wrong with
the disk that I can tell, since I use the NAS for a lot of stuff and there
have been no issues with it.
