If I’m not allowed to browse my files, how am I supposed to modify the code? Isn’t this a deadlock situation? If I can’t `preview` it, I’m not allowed to see the `source code`. Without seeing the `source code`, how can I modify the code so that it works?

have you tried a page refresh, dev server restart and / or sandbox restart. That has cleared up this situation for me prior.

Hey! To help debug your v0 project, could you share your **v0 chat link**?
It looks like `https://v0.app/chat/...` — you can copy it from your browser's address bar while in the chat.

You'll also need to unlist the chat so our team can view it — here's how: https://v0.app/docs/sharing

This helps the team reproduce what you're seeing much faster. Thanks!
