This specifies 3 different prefixes to test:
    .  /  and  Figures/

If one works, then great.
e.g. with   includegraphics[scale=0.75]{01-00-01.pdf}

the filenames tested are:
    .01-00-01.pdf
    /1-00-01.pdf
    Figures/01-00-01.pdf

I'd expect that the last of these works, but not the earlier two.

    ./Figures/01-00-01.pdf  is the same as    Figures/01-00-01.pdf

These should be the same, so either both working
or both failing is consistent.
What is the correct path to the images ?


Hope this helps,
