# KI.GWB.5900 – Files and node groups in scan options issues

Files and node groups in scan options not behaving as expected. A workaround is available.

Applies to: `Guardian Classic`

**Problem**
:   The **Change Report** tab (**Reports** > **Change Report**) showed 33K files as removed and added during consecutive scans, even though the files have not been modified. Additionally, certain node groups containing these files were not visible in the **Scan Options** page. When performing an ad hoc scan, the 'Files' section was missing, though it appeared during nightly scans.

**Cause**
:   This issue is currently under investigation. We will update this page when more information is available.

**Workaround**
:   To workaround this known issue, clear the Rails cache to restore visibility of the missing node groups and ensure scans function as expected.
