I have a question about working on a file stored on a network drive. We like to save our projects on network drives so others users can access them and at job sites they are accessible. When we save a project on the network drive, and access it later we get a warning that states "working on a project (or file) stored on a network drive is not recommended. Because of network timing issues, the files can become corrupted.".
Is that stating that it wants projects that are stored only on local drives? What kind of workaround is there for this problem?

I agree with The Emperor. Never run Trace over a network, as any failure will be catastrophic. Not to mention there will be a significant increase in calculation time. I am not sure anyone knows why it tends to crash in such cases, but it seems likely given that Trace maximizes at least one core of a processor, which is way faster than any network.
So basically, move the .trc to a local directory while working on it and then put it back on the network when finished. It may not be ideal, but it saves the hassle of losing everything.
