tells me it can't find a file on "C:"

That's the name of your main drive. What did you use as a filename? It's a bad idea to use punctuation marks in filenames. Today is 2018-03-21, not 3/21/18.

_underscore_ and -dash- are OK.

48KHz is the sampling rate associated with video. 44100 is associated with Audio CD. Audacity > Edit > Preferences > Quality > Default Sample Rate: 48000 > OK. Sometimes stereo/mono is determined by the interface or microphone and you don't have a lot to say about it. If you have an actual stereo sh...

must not overwrite the project with "Save Project As" That's one of those Programmer/Human Engineering things. Who in their right mind would use Save As: to write corrections to the current project? Turns out quite a number of people. Further, sometimes it worked. Rough to correct problem...

Hyphens "-" and underscore "_" are OK. Even if your computer accepts other punctuation marks, that's only safe if you assume nobody else will ever see your work. My last serious voice recording went to several versions of all three computer platforms, and that was only the ones ...

You can post 10 second stereo (two blue sound waves) or 20 second mono clip (one blue sound wave) of the work here on the forum. Export using WAV (Microsoft) format please. Scroll down from a forum window > Upload Attachment. As a fuzzy, but almost universal rule, we can't take out effects or proces...

After you shovel off stuff from your internal drive, you should do a drive health check and defragment it, assuming it's a spinning metal drive. Media Production programs don't much like working over external connections and they don't like drives slow from highly fragmented file management. https:/...

This is an Audacity Project.
