Steps to reproduce:
1. Unzip the attached SlickEditTest.zip.
2. In SlickEdit select Project -> Open Workspace... and select the extracted SlickEditTest.sln.
There now is an unexpected file named "SlickEditBug" under Projects, please see the attached image.
SlickEdit does indeed consider "SlickEditBug" a real file, here is for example the output of a workspace search:
Find all "test", "<Workspace>", "*.*", Exclude: "moc_*;ui_*;*.docx"
File D:\SlickEditTest\SlickEditTest\SlickEditTest.cpp
2 20:#include "SlickEditTest.h"
File D:\SlickEditTest\SlickEditTest\SlickEditTest.h
3 20:#ifndef SLICK_EDIT_TEST_H
4 20:#define SLICK_EDIT_TEST_H
Failed to open: D:\SlickEditTest\SlickEditTest\SlickEditBug
