Alright. You want to be blunt, I'll be blunt with you too.
You are an idiot. No matter how smart you might actually be. Coddling creates weak people who cannot resolve matters on their own, and this matter was completely within her power to resolve. Were it that she did not get the email, or that she was given the wrong file path, I would be more than happy to assist her.
Furthermore, she never once mentioned the actual file path, or thought to forward the email to me for review so I could actually help her.
She took zero initiative other than to complain to me, then provided me a marginal amount of incomplete information.
This is not the behavior of a so-called "professional".
I'll be further blunt: The world would be better off without people like you creating more adult children that are totally incapable of resolving even the most germane issues without totally giving up and blowing up at the people around them. Furthermore, given that I am several steps above her in the chain of command, she should have gone to her direct report and not me in the first place.
My job involves solving very real problems with very real stakes, not pointing out to a 22 year old adult that they need to thoroughly read their emails and not skim over them.
