Default "Could not create new document because file or folder not found (-43)

Hey Avid community! I am in dire need of direction here. I am trying to start new sessions on my PT (12.8.0.) And every time I go to start, it gives me that error message and does not allow me to continue further, yet, ask it to open an existing session and everything is absolutely fine! I am Lost! Very frustrating and I don't have the slightest clue on what to do. If anyone as experienced this, please let me know. Operating sys: Sierra 10.12.3

Welcome to the community.

Try to hold down the N key during launch until the Playback engine window opens. Check/change the settings.

P.S. For anyone having the same issue, hold down the N button on session start up as suggested by Stig. Down the bottom of the dialogue window, if you will probably have to change the location of where you are saving the session to. In my case, I was without the external drive I have it defaulted to new sessions to and had to manually change it to the desktop/cloud/other folder of your choosing.

Hope that helps.
