GnuCash Delete file how to

[Geert Janssens]

What you see is not really the file, but just a list of recently used 
files. GnuCash can't know you have deleted the real file behind it. You 
can leave those recently used items in the list if they don't bother 
you. If you  want to get rid of them, here's the official FAQ for this:
