Missing audio files - Cubase

    Help...

    Very new to all this, learning as I go so forgive my ignorance and basic questions.

    Basically came back to Cubase today to load up some projects I'd been working on. There are 7 projects I had saved within a folder alongside other folders for various music stuff on an external hard drive.

    The first thing is that when I was opening the one I wanted to work on, rather than just opening it up like normal it opens a dialog box to 'Set Project Folder'. Can anyone tell me why it's doing this for this particular project and not the others?

    I just selected the location it already is as that seems to make sense...

    So when I set the project folder, before the project opens fully I get the 'Resolve Missing Files' box - with every audio file in the project listed! The funny thing is the file-paths of the listed audio files are all on a location on the PC hard drive that I definitely did not save them on. It was all saved on the external drive and was absolutely fine the last time I opened it.

    I've searched for the files and they're nowhere to be found on the PC or ext hard drive. They are in the Cubase Pool.

    I then noticed that this happens for all audio files in all 7 projects within this folder.:(

    All project files on other folders on the external hard drive are fine. It's just these 7.

    Hopefully I haven't done something that's caused their deletion or something. Can anyone see what might have happened?

    I'm using Cubase 6, Windows 7, Motu Audio Express.

    Thanks
