Has anyone seen this sort of thing before? I have a scoped app developed in Studio in our Dev instance. It is published from there and then installed into our UAT and Prod instances.
In Dev everything is fine. However in UAT and prod it's displaying two tabs that were previously deleted. The screenshot is V6 of our app and as I say it's fine in Dev but in the other instances shows the two circled tabs that were removed in an earlier version.
Does anyone know why they might have returned and what I can do about it?

Hello @spike ,
Check that, both added and deleted entries present in the update set that are moved in upper instances.
Also, one thing sometimes there is version difference for the fields that are transfer from selected to available in dev update set and same update set moved in upper instances. So, you need to first import the XML file with added fields from dev to upper instance then removed that fields in dev and then move that update including in update set in upper instances.
Let me know if any doubts.
Please accept my solution if it works for you and thumps up to mark it as helpful.
Thank you!!
Thank you!!

Thanks for this. The app isn't moved via update sets but via the App Repo (installed in the upper instances from "My Company applications." Not update sets are involved).
And I'm the only dev so I know nothing has been captured in an update set. I always publish from Dev and then use the App Repo to install to higher instances.

@spike Looks like the changes related to deleting the section either never reached to the higher instance or the changes were reverted somehow on those instances.

The definitely reached the higher instance as some stage as they were not visible until the recent release. Something has obviously managed to pick up the records again in the new packaged. No idea what.
