Summary0017499: Locate moved/missing files: usability tweaks
Description1) It's currently unclear why users are selecting directories. The dialog should have 'Search the selected locations:' at the top .
2) 'Hide unselected' doesn't make sense in this context (I can't think of a scenario in which this would be useful).
3) The 'New Folder...' button doesn't make sense in this context (why would a user want to search in a newly created empty folder?)

TagsNo tags attached.
Fixed in build2819

Verified 1,2 & 3 on 2818.

4) Add adds the Parent folder instead of full Path.
1 Add E:\folder1\folder2
--> E:\folder1 is added instead
 (If you use E:\folder1\folder2\ it works)

5) Adding non-existent folder adds drive as network Path.
1 Add actual E:\folder1\folder2 (non-existent)
--> \\E: is added instead
MM should warn that Path doesn't exist and not add anything instead.

4) This works for local drives on 2819, but for UNC Path it now takes the root server node, instead of the folder.

5) Verified on 2819.

4) Does the folder exist?
Works fine in my case, tested adding '\\NAS\music\' (see attached screenshot)

4) Works for me too on 2822. However the folder list didn't scroll to the selection. This likely would be helpful to confirm to user that it was made.

4) For me it does scroll to the selection fine, can you re-test and if it really fails then catch it in a screencast video?
