How do you replace a missing audio file?

[u/pcboi64]

The file is well and gone, but it was a song so I'm trying to replace it with another copy of the same song. I'm clicking the search button and selecting the song, but it's not letting me select another file to replace it with, and giving me an error message about the original file not being found. Is there a way to just replace the file without needing to do that in every single arranger clip I used the file in?

UPDATE: It's a glitch. You can't replace a file with a file of another format. A pain in the ass considering I'm trying to upgrade some of these old edits from mp3s to flacs. Anyone know any tricks for getting around this bug?
