On Windows, what executes in the background from the File menu is a bunch
of C++ routines which are part of the NetView GUI itself. If there is an
external command which you could enter to regenerate the map outside the
GUI, I'm afraid I don't know what that is. I don't work on this area of
the product.
I tried to put myself in your shoes on two different machines, opening the
default map, then pulling down File and deleting it, while it was still
open. In each case, I was asked if I really wanted to delete the default
map, and when I clicked "OK'", the GUI did the delete, and immediately
created another default map in front of my eyes, so I have no idea why this
did not work for you.
Perhaps some other user has already seen this problem and has a solution,
but I do not. The only external way I know of to get a new map is to use
serversetup to clear the databases and let discovery proceed all over
again. If you choose that route, let's hope you have a good seed file.
If you don't want to do this, then you'll have to contact Support and hope
that they have a solution I haven't seen.
In the future, you might take periodic backups of
\usr\ov\databases\openview as a precaution.

Did you try pulling down File --> New Map and generating a new one called
