Deleting resources

Now that a few files have been imported into the second project (JaneQuser2), here are instructions on how to delete the project. 

1. Select project JaneQuser2 in one of the navigation views.

2. To delete the project do one of the following:

   • From the project's pop-up menu choose Delete
   • Press the DEL key
   • Choose Edit > Delete from the pull-down menu

3. A prompt will ask for confirmation of the deletion and also what type of deletion should be performed.

   It is possible to:

   • Delete the contents of the project from the file system

   • Delete the project from the workspace but keep its contents in the file system

   • Accept the default (do not delete contents) and click Yes.

Note: This is only an option for projects. Files and folders are always deleted from the file system when deleted.

The same steps work for any resource shown in the navigation view.
