Oh, I don't know, it's new to me - never heard of such a thing.

Appeared where?  What version are you using?  Perhaps you accidentally
created a new account?

Oh! Maybe I know what happened.  If you detached your main Account
Tree tab from the rest of the window, say perhaps by clicking Windows
-> New Window with Page, then closed it, and restarted, it wouldn't
re-open.  That's probably a bug that it's even possible to do that.

If this is what has happened to you, you can re-open your Account Tree
tab by clicking File -> New -> New Accounts Page.

p.s. You might consider it another bug that "New Accounts Page" is not
obviously different than "New Accounts Hierarchy",
