    Default Prompt for missing library when opening a drawing

    This is was I keep seeing when opening a drawing.

    Command: \\konsrv15\common\custom-cad\Blocks was not found. The recent blocks will be saved in \\Konto-NAS\Backup\common\custom-cad\Blocks.

    I'm not sure why it keeps looking for the old location. Could this be tied into the Tool Palettes? I have a couple palettes with blocks on them.

    It's telling you that the block library you had set cannot be found. You must have deleted/moved the folder, or working from a different pc? Open the Blocks palette using the (1) INSERT command and (2) go to the Libraries tab, then (3) set the library.

    In addition to Ed Jobe's reply, click on the Gear icon that should be on any one of those tabs including Libraries for you to set a new location:
