M meeshymee Active member Joined Jul 18, 2021 Posts 25 Jul 28, 2021 #38 Yes, it shouldn't remain once the tab is moved - it only remained because the tab froze which is also why in the other image there were two tabs on top of each other. So does this mean my file is no longer corrupt or missing? Thank you - I appreciate it.
