InDesign Showing Missing Image Links for a Page That Doesn’t Exist

Question

My InDesign file suddenly started listing missing images to a page that doesn’t exist. I am the only person who has ever worked on this file. These images weren’t listed in the links panel yesterday when I closed the file but they appeared this morning when I opened it.

Create a new document, without ANY STYLES.It has to have 2 pages, same size, same bleed.No additional layer, rename the existing layer to “OLD LAYER”Save this document.Open both, old and new document.In the new document: Layout > Pages > Move Pages … from old to new, add at the endSaveDelete the first 2 pages from the beginning and the “Old Layer”Save as INDDIt should contain only valid items and end up with smaller file size.
