So for the moment, how can I remove the entry from the database? I don't know where it's stored.
It's stored in the IDE's preferences file.

A habit to get into: Test the presence of the file before trying to open it, it is much faster.
Code: Select all
Debug FileSize("\\test\hello\world.txt") ; -1 file does not exist
If you don't do this, a local network can take up to 20 minutes to respond if there is no local name resolution system (it looks crashed, but it isn't)
Look up
NetBIOS over TCP/IP to understand how names propagation works (or not) on a local network in the absence of local DNS.
