Not sure what i did but all of the sudden, when I build a project, TD can't
find files in my repository.
Where do I go to see what repository paths are used?
 
There are a number of ways to find it
If the repository is stored on the local machine you can look in C:\Windows Embedded Data\Repositories\. There you will find a number of directories. The name for the directory of the component you are looking for can be found in Database Manager. Otherwise you can just go into everyone and what is there. Remember that repository files are stored "flat" i.e. there are no subdirectories.
 
My database in on my local drive.
The files are all there in subfolders of c:\
C:\Windows Embedded Data\Repositories\{484C9D34-846E-40E2-A2E6-FF2771A303D5}

But TD can't find the files.
The files are there, so I suspect that it is not looking in the correct
place.

I don't see where in component database manager that it will tell you the
repository for the files.

David,

Are you talking about your component files or system XPe repositories? What
exactly error messages TD gives you?

In the Component Database Manager you can see all the repositories
registered on the "Repository" page.
 
Hello,

If you don't have a network card installed in your development computer try
manually installing the MS Loopback Adapter. TD accesses the repository
through a share on your local computer. If the share is not available
becuase the necessary network services are not started TD will show errors
about files not found.

Looks like the share for that respository folder was turned off. Don't
recall deleting the share but who knows.
I put the share back and hooked back up to the network and all is good.

Thanks!
