You have provided no OS/release details, nor details such as if the drive was mounted. – guiverc Jun 16 '20 at 06:17

I have found out that there are two versions of Kdenlive. One version works great at the Ubuntu Store.

the version that works has the colorful logo of the director film strip...... is it " a fork of Kdenlive or something ? – Christian Bearsly Clark Jun 17 '20 at 01:04

I don't know what you've done but you can certainly find out. It it's a snap package you can get this information with the command
snap list | grep kdenlive
if it's a deb package you can get it with the commandsudo dpkg list | grep kdenlive

Every package has a version number which has value in determining what the problem might be. You can obtain then by the methods I described. Since you aren't using the snap variant it's a deb package. – Elder Geek Jun 20 '20 at 00:22
