ArcGIS Pro version: 3.2

Hi, I have encountered a persistent bug where ArcGIS Pro automatically restores project folders that have been deleted. 

Despite repeated attempts to delete these folders, they reappear upon restarting the software or my windows machine. The folders are not sync with my OneDrive (or other similar services) and my Recycle Bin works fine.

I do not know what I should do to solve the issue. If I uninstall ArcGIS pro these projects folders stop reappearing but I need to use the software so it is not a solution 😅.

I hope someone can help me!

All the bests,

Lorenzo

Hi, clai. Just turn off indexing for ArcGIS Pro.

Project Tab -> Options-> Indexing

Hi All,
After upgrading my ArcGIS Pro to 3.3, I found that this problem is solved.
Try to upgrade ArcGIS Pro to 3.3 and delete the folders manually and you will never find these folders again.
