Question

Closed files still appear in FrameMaker window

I am running FrameMaker 2017 on Windows 10. Since I upgraded to Windows 10, I've noticed (sometimes) as I'm closing book files, the files close, but it (the book file) is still displayed in my FrameMaker window.

This can be resolved by closing and re-opening FrameMaker. But why should I have to do that?

    When you have a book open and active, you can hold the Shift key and select File > Close All Files in Book. The open document files are closed, but the book file remains open. To close it, choose File > Close Book.

    When you have a book open and a document active, you can hold the Shift key and select File > Close All Open files. This closes all of the files, including the book file.

    All files are closed, book has been saved and closed. It remains displayed on the home screen. Cannot close it.
