Can’t load song. One or more files that are required seem to be missing.

Hi!

A weird thing happened to me today and I figure maybe you nice folks could help.

I stepped away from my computer and while I was away my external drive appears to have unmounted and then re-mounted. There was a little thing in the corner that said I had ejected the disk improperly.

I had a Reason song open at the time and it was saved to the disk that got "ejected" or whatever. So when I went to save the file I got a loading bar and it said that it was copying a file but never did anything. I waited a couple minuets and finally gave up. I hadn't actually made any changes (I was just saving out of habit). So I closed the file and it went away.

But now when I try to open the file I get an error: Can’t load song.
 One or more files that are required seem to be missing.

I figured the file got corrupted but I have a backup system so I reverted the file to the version I saved last night and now the old file gives me the same error. Has anyone ever had this happen? It's weird, right?

I'm on OSX 10.11.6 and using Reason 9.0
