Happy new year.

You have set either incorrect path or wrong namespace (or both of them). Try list all files/folders in your root (empty path) to see where are you and navigate to the correct path. 😉
Good luck.

Again, i need to move file between different namespaces so john root namespace is X and admin namespace is Y. How could i move file from X namespace to Y namespace?
The problem is the root namespace is different for each user and the admin, and the root namespace for admin list only admin's folder and all the team folder but without all other user's home folder.
