# Perspective session says "user" (me) is still editing resources even though I have saved, updated, and closed the project. Is there something I am missing?

The ghost is back… Last time it was myself on wireless IP vs. wired IP. This time, both of me are on the same IP address.

IT had a planned network outage over the weekend. I exited the designer and rebooted my workstation. Monday morning, I am now competing with two of myself with the same IP address.

I’ve re-opened the support ticket and per instructions, – waiting for opportunity to reboot the server.

If you are having this issue, vote for idea:  
[Add the ability to release resources being edited by absent users | Voters | Inductive Automation](https://ideas.inductiveautomation.com/ignition-features-and-ideas/p/add-the-ability-to-release-resources-being-edited-by-absent-users)

Ghost Buster Steps:

1. master server - exported all objects with conflicting user
2. master server - turned off redundancy
3. redundant server - stopped the Ignition service
4. master server - restarted the Ignition service
5. redundant server - started the Ignition service
6. master server - turned on redundancy
7. master server - verified no code rolled back to the ghost user version

The ghost is now gone
