Dear Christiaan,

Thanks, setting a fixed papers folder worked! Previously I had the “File papers 
relative to each document” on.

Dear all,

Recently I've noticed that "Orphaned Files" feature is not working. I'm sure 
that I have some PDF's in the folder that are not linked to any entry in the 
bib file, however none are found. The "Orhpaned Files" window says (at the 
bottom): "Unknown papers folder." I have files auto-stored in the same folder 
that also contains the bib file. Accessing PDFs from BibDesk works fine; also, 
renaming the file in Finder is reflected in BibDesk.  I have BibDesk version 
1.8.3, macOS 10.15.2.

Is there some trivial problem that I'm facing?

Thank you in advance,
Miha

What papers folder have you set in your Autofile preference? Is this a fixed 
file, and does this exist? Or are you using a papers folder relative to the 
document? And have you more or less than one open document?

I think I found a problem in the code. I assume you have your papers folder set 
relative to the document? In that case it may not find the papers folder from 
the orphaned files feature. I’ll have this fixed in the next nightly build, 
unfortunately just too late for the release. You could also work around this by 
setting a fixed papers folder in your Autofile preferences.
