SIGIL 2.4.2
"Warning: Files exist in epub that are not listed in the manifest ... Details: OEBPS/Misc/XHd_eBk_Cnr_389c.epub"
Two different validators agree that I should "activate XHd_eBk_Cnr_389c.epub in Manifest or Delete it".
Listing in manifest would be simple, but I want to delete it. It is an intruder the size of 10MB !! . I have to delete it but where is it? There is nothing in the Sigil folder*'Misc'. So I spent hours searching the whole book, including OEBPS content, metadata etc, but I cannot find that file in my epub anywhere. So how can I delete a file I cannot find? By its file name, I can see it is an earlier version of my eBook embed in a later version of my eBook. How it got in there I do not know ! But how can I delete a file I cannot see it file name?
