    You'll find .ipj files in two locations for each project file, I suspect you deleted one of them and left the other one behind which is why you are seeing that msg.

     

     You'll either need to recreate the missing .ipj files or delete the other corresponding .ipj file to cure this.

    Check the Recycle bin, or use some Un-Delete/Recover software and you might be able to recover the files. Windows doesn't completely delete the file, it only deletes the first character of the file name (unless you use a "Wipe" software) to permanently delete the file.
