Persistent File Name Outlining in Sidebar - How to Disable It?

Hello everyone,

I have a small issue with the Obsidian interface. When I navigate through folders and files in the left sidebar, sometimes the names of certain files remain outlined (with a border around them), which is visually annoying. Is there a way to disable or remove this persistent outlining?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Can you try switching to the default theme, no CSS snippets (if you have any), enable Restricted mode, and restart?

I’ve seen this come up a few times in the same number of weeks, but no one has pinned it down to a specific theme or plugin causing it yet. I don’t have the issue in my vaults.
