Add new topic, get duplicate topic message, but no topic is displayed in project

Hello,

I'm using RoboHelp 2015.

When I try to add a topic to a sub-folder of my project, I get the message "The file you specified already exists. Would you like to overwrite it?" However, I do not see that topic in the list of folders in the Project Manage pane.

I have looked at the project in Google Chrome and do not see a topic with that name. I checked another topic with a similar name and did not see any problem with the Topic Title and the File Name.

I can create the topic in the main project folder with no problem.

Is there a solution for this?

Thanks,

Mdawn

To expound on Peter's question, try right-clicking the folder in question and choosing the option to "Explore".

Thanks for the additional information. That helped. It took me a bit to realize you both meant within the RoboHelp file and not in Windows Explorer.

I can see the topic in Explorer. Inside the topic it has a different name. The file has the correct name. so, I'm not sure how to correct the problem. I can't get to the file to rename it within RoboHelp.

Thanks for your help.
