The Unused Files report provides a list of files in your project folder that are not used. Most likely, these files are old ones that you've stopped using and no longer need like .GIF and .JPG images, style sheets, and topics.
You won't see these files listed in the Project Manager — this is why this report is so useful. It isolates files that are not in use and displays a list of them in one place.
You can print this report and refer to it when removing files you no longer need. You can't remove these files in your project. You'll need to use the Windows Explorer to open your project folder, locate the files and delete them from your system.
WARNING! Before you remove files, be absolutely sure that you no longer need to use them. Windows places files you remove in the Recycle Bin and keeps them there until the bin is emptied. For more information about removing files, see Tips for removing files from projects.
You can sort the information displayed in this report by file name or by file type. In addition, you can view the contents of an individual folder by selecting it from the Folder list.
