Jacque,

Thanks for your thoughtful suggestions. I had been trying "Save as..." from inside Rev, to no avail, but encouraged by your mail I duplicated the stack from the desktop into a new folder, tried to open it, put a second folder into the first one, moved the stack therein, etc. etc. That seemed to work and so I started checking whether the nested folder in which the stack was originally planned to go might be the source of all these troubles.

Now I think I found the culprit. The target folder was C (desktop > folder A > folder B > folder C) with A, B, and C being meaningful names indicating the topics of the projects I am working on. C contains word processing files, outliner files and further folders. I never had any problem with opening the other stuff placed either in C or in its sub-folders, only the said Revolution stack displayed the strange behaviour I described.

The problem, however, was not C in itself but rather the name of folder B in which one term was put in quotation marks. I removed those and now everything works as expected.

Again, thank you for your help.

All the best,
Fritz

Jacque,
Thank you so much for your suggestions but, unfortunately, they don't work. I had the same problem once or twice in the past with earlier Revolution Versions and at that time just gave up and created stacks from scratch instead of developing from clones but at the moment I simply lack the leisure to proceed like this.

Since I've never seen the behavior and I'm not sure what is causing it, I don't really have any other suggestions. But one way to work around it might be to duplicate your stack in the OS before opening it in Rev. I do this a lot. On Mac, in the Finder, or on Windows in Windows Explorer, copy the stack and then paste it into another folder. Make sure Rev does not have the original stack open, then try opening the copy. Does that work? You can rename it once it is open, and make any other adjustments.
