Scanned Results

Apologises if this is placed in the wrong forum.
So recently my external hard drive become corrupted, and I have had to rebuild my library, given that some assets were located on the internal drive, I used SCAN KNOWN DRIVES, to locate the stuff I needed.
But now SCANNED RESULTS appears on the PRODUCTS tab on the left of the screen, I have tried many times to remove the items from SCANNED RESULTS, and even remove these directories from the CONTENT LIBRARY, but every time I do a CONTENT DB MAINTENANCE when I install third party assets, all that I have removed from SCANNED RESULTS end up right back there, and I am back to square one.
Does anyone know how to completely remove SCANNED RESULTS, and not remove the assets, because I am confused :(
Thanks
