   Thanks for the report! This looks like a duplicate of #56270, your issue from yesterday. It has the same title and text and is still open. That issue in turn points to #44256, the open request to detect when a project folder is renamed or moved and re-link its sessions and project to the new path.

   Possible duplicates and related issues, ordered from most to least likely:

   • sessions break when their folder is renamed outside opencode #56270: the same report, word for word (your earlier issue)
   • [FEATURE]: Allow renaming/moving a project folder while persisting session history (replacement for stale-closed #25625) #44256: rename or move a project folder and keep its session history, with detection and re-linking (same request)
   • [1.18.30 Desktop] Renaming a project folder keeps a stale project.worktree (git-remote project id + close-only "remove project") #48349: renaming a project folder leaves a stale project.worktree; this may relate to the stale project rows you mention
   • session: unable to resume a session after its directory is removed (Session location unavailable) #55035: sessions can't be resumed after their directory is removed ("Session location unavailable")
   • Session data is keyed by absolute path, breaking context when reorganizing folders #48254: session data is keyed by absolute path, so reorganizing folders breaks it
   • desktop: missing or inaccessible project folder breaks project requests #50951: a missing or inaccessible project folder breaks project requests

   If you disagree with the duplicate decision on #56270, it's best to reply there, so the discussion stays in one place. If you can reproduce stale project rows coming back on restart from orphaned worktree entries, please open a separate issue with the steps for that.

   The bot will close this issue as a duplicate in 1 day unless you reply explaining how your problem is different.

   Closing this as a duplicate of #56270, your earlier issue with the same title and text. We haven't had a reply in the day since the duplicate notice. That issue points to #44256, which asks for renamed or moved project folders to be detected and their sessions re-linked, so please follow #44256 for that request. If something here really is different, for example stale project rows coming back from orphaned worktree entries, please open a new issue with the steps to reproduce it. Thanks!
