Validate only checks rows that are ready: Autofix, CrossRef and Match rows, and Not Found rows where you’ve typed a new path. It leaves the rest alone on purpose.
What to do #
- Possible: check the path, then set the row to Match. Validate leaves Possible rows alone until you do.
- Mismatch or Keep: these are parked on purpose. Change the status when you’re ready.
- “Nothing to validate”: every row it would check is already validated.
Rows whose file isn’t there go back to Not Found with your path kept, and validate lists them so you can correct them.
