# Missing​Required​Template​Files

**Deprecated:**

This check only exists in Theme Check `v1.X.X`.

## Auto-correction

Theme Check can correct this error using the `--auto-correct` flag. When the flag is specified, Theme Check automatically creates the missing template in the `templates` directory as an empty JSON template.

## Disabling this check

This check is safe to [disable](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/themes/tools/theme-check/configuration).
