Question

everything was working fine until i got the new update. after refreshing the app, i went to make a new song and my templates were erased... i tried to load one of my beats and it pops up with a window that reads "the file *** cannot be found! would you like to remove it from recent files list?"

Answer 1

Your Studio One instance probably simply changed it's default User Data Location folder.  Open your preferences and select LOCATIONS and make sure it's pointing to the correct location where all your data is being saved.

Also, if you have an external drive that you are saving your data to, make sure it is powered ON, plugged in and hasn't changed names.  

Hope that helps you.
