More of a warning for several reasons rather than a Tool Breaker
if p:\ follows a path to a model / texture or whatever and the P:drive is live
the game wont complain about missinf \ _X
shut the P:\ down and the game will complain
whislt options pathtotextures p:\ should fix so P:\ is not added when a texture is selected , it may not be evident to all the cosequences of not .

This is a potential security issue...
