Unable to import any audio files in Wwise error : Copy file to originals folder failed

+1 vote
Hello ! I'm in the first lesson and i can't import an audio file in Wwise . i have this error :"Copy file to originals folder failed.: Shotgun_Blast.wav". I know there is a file length limitations in Wwise so i also tried to import the .wav file from my HDD root but it didn't work.

Any ideas ?

Have you tried checking to see if your antivirus is blocking access? I had a similar problem and that was the solution

When I created my project, Wwise defaulted to putting it in a new directory inside my OneDrive folder (Windows 10 PC). Turned out that the copy operation wouldn't work to a destination inside OneDrive. I created a new project whose folders lived outside of OneDrive, and then the copying operations worked subsequently.
