How can I find a folder and help topic that appear on output but not in RoboHelp?

I have deleted a folder named Dropdown and the topic called First Topic in in RoboHelp. No sign of either of them any where.

I can't work out how you have got a folder called Dropdown as shown in the File Explorer image. RoboHelp does not create any such folder and all you topic folders should be within Contents. Because your first image is clipped part way through Assets, I can see if a Dropdown folder is shown there but I assume not.

I have deleted the First_Topic.htm and the DropDown folder from the Unified2 RoboHelp project folder, but when I go back and generate my html preset, both folder and First_Topic.htm re-appear!

I cannot find where RoboHelp is storing the deleted folder and First_Topic.htm file.

I'm thinking because that folder is showing in File Explorer still, albeit not within Contents, it is creating confusion. Close RoboHelp, move that folder outside the project rather than delete it at this stage, then open RoboHelp again.

Let us know if that works.
