Think of it like this - someone else might have the same issue - and if they do - they can find the solution - because now it is available.
I would not have added this here without looking at both UiPath Forum searches - and UiPath Documentation searches beforehand. I only post here when the answer seems to be nowhere in sight.
The result of me finding the answers I need - allows me to make my Bot functional (because it was very concerning not being capable of accessing the correct files). Which also allows me to keep my job. Failure is not an option most of the time - & timeliness is crucial, especially if the deadline is overdue.
