SYMPTOMS

When you delete a folder and its contents from a source Web (for example, from a staging server or a test Web server), and then publish the Web, the folder you want to be deleted is still present in the destination Web. This problem occurs even if you click Yes or Yes to All when you are prompted to confirm deletion of the files during the publishing process. Although the folder you want to have deleted from the Web is still in the destination Web, the folder no longer contains any files or folders.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem and delete the folder from the destination Web, republish your source Web.
