| <h1>Deleting resources</h1> |
| <p>To delete a resource from the Workbench:</p> |
| <ol> |
| <li>In one of the navigation views, select the resources that you want to delete. (Hold down the Ctrl key to select |
| more than one resource.)</li> |
| <li>Press the Delete key.</li> |
| <li>Click <b>Yes</b> in the dialog which appears.</li> |
| </ol> |
| <p><em>Tip:</em> You can achieve the same result by selecting <b>Delete</b> from the pop-up menu.</p> |
| <p>Deleting resources from the workspace will also delete the corresponding files and/or folders from the local file |
| system. The only exception is linked resources, which are not removed from the file system when you delete the link |
| in the workspace. However, deleting child resources of linked folders <em>will</em> delete those resources from the |
| local file system.</p> |
| <p>In most cases it is possible to undo a resource delete, which will restore deleted files from the local history. |
| The files can also be restored manually from the history. See the related tasks for more details.</p> |
