blank footage at end of video -- Premier Elements 2020

I've created my video, but there is 15 plus minutes of blank footage at end of my video.    Other posts on the forum tell users to click on \ key and look for "orphaned" content.   I do no see anything on the timeline besides my video.  I've deleted empty tracks.    I've attempted to highlight and drag the curser.   Still nothing.  I downloaded and installed the latest version.

 

What am I doing incorrectly?

 

Any suggestions for a cure are appreciated!

By pressing the "/" key it fits the project to the visible timeline.  So if your video stays on the left, there is something on the right that needs deleting.   If it doesn't work, there is a way around it.  You can use the "Work Area Bars" set to the beginning and end of your intended video.  Then at output, check the small box that says Work Area Only.

That worked! Thank you!   

 

Still scratching my head about the "something on the right that needs deleting".

 

But I am not arguing with success ....
