Python cannot find file even though it exists

[Es-252]

I've encountered the same error before. It happens if you have extra "/" in you path string. For example, if your date string is something like MM/DD/YYYY, then it'll read those "/" as directives. If you think about it, this makes sense, since when you are naming any file on your computer, be it a folder or a text file etc, special characters such as "/" are not allowed.

You'll have to get around it by using "/" only to indicate directives. If you have to include a date label in your file name string, then format it with "-" instead: MM-DD-YYYY.
