Is that local view or server view?
If it’s local view It seems to me you have not selected httpdocs as a project folder when creating the project:

It is local view. I have several domains/projects under htdocs. To use PHP composer, I created httpdocs under each domain. It is working fine in the stable version.

xampp > htdocs > domain1.com
xampp > htdocs > domain2.com
xampp > htdocs > domain3.com

I cannot select C:\xampp\htdocs because Folder is not empty! message due to other domains/projects.

You can’t select it of course, if it’s not empty.
If you want to use different folders for different projects like that, you’d need to create virtual hosts for them in your local wamp/mamp/xamp server.
Otherwise Wappler will always copy the files in your server root - the htdocs folder.
