I'm getting a FileNotFoundException using the Storage Facade when the file is indeed there. I'm looking at it in the damn folder. The path and filename are correct, I've triple checked everything ...

The weird part is I'm downloading it from another section via controller using response()->download($same->path) and it works perfectly.

If I use Storage::get($same->path) it returns the file as a string ... but the download method can't seem to find it.

I've read the docs ... am I missing something obvious?

Thanks.
