    Image helps, thank you!

Your support has been exemplary;
I owe you my life, you made sure I didn't waste the rest of my days looking for a hypothetical folder on phone.
Thanks to your indication I easily found the folder in question. (it had served as proof) and left there with another name never thinking that a folder with another name could influence the result.
However I deleted it and everything went back to normal.
Without your help I would never have arrived at the solution.
thanks again and

Greetings...👋
