Many times sharepoint designer gets stuck/ Considers checked out files as checked in or vice versa.

In most common scenario you’ll see a message like “Cannot perform this operation. The file is no longer checked out or has been deleted.” while checking in a file.

The solution is to clear all the cache that SharePoint designer has stored on your machine.

For clearing that you can press Win + R and navigate to these two folders and delete all available files.

• %APPDATA%MicrosoftWeb Server ExtensionsCache
• %USERPROFILE%AppDataLocalMicrosoftWebsiteCache
