A vague error can occur when there are unscanned files using File archive type in your RomRoot and a fix tries to move files of the same name into place

The error message is not intuitive, this should trigger an “Unexpected file found” error instead. The error message should be descriptive and tell the user why there was an error. In this case its because there was an unknown file by the same name in the destination directory.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start with a new RV instance

  2. Add the Wii U WUX dat to your datroot and change the DAT rule to use single archive with no subdirs

  3. Place a WUX file with the correct name in your ToSort

  4. Place another copy of the same file in the correct location in your romroot

  5. Scan ONLY the ToSort

  6. Select both the ToSort and the DAT and do Find and Fix

  7. When RV tries to move the WUX file from ToSort to the proper location it cannot since theres already a file with that name in that location.

  8. Notice the vague error that displays that does not tell the user what the root cause of the issue was.
