Additional Information
This behavior is as designed in ArcGIS Pro. When adding an enterprise database connection to the project favorites, a copy of the connection file can be stored in the user's roaming profile on the local machine, but it is not a requirement. Instead, a reference may be added to the original file into the project favorites. When adding a project favorite item to the current project, it is done by reference to the favorite item and not by placing a copy of the favorite connection in the project's home folder. This behavior was seen in the early 2.x versions of ArcGIS Pro but has since been updated to only ever add the item by reference. Therefore, when deleting the item in the project, the favorite item is actually being deleted.Steps to Reproduce
