How do I delete projects from my data?
I don't mean on the website, I want to find out how to delete them from my scratch program. Please help!

Re: How do I delete projects from my data?
They're not stored in Scratch, just opened with Scratch. 
Can you not just delete them directly from the folder? 
I haven't opened Scratch in so long I've forgotten the answer to that, but if it's "no", find the folder called "Scratch projects" or whatever the default folder's called. If you're on Windows, you can open the start menu, and use the search feature to find the folder. Then just delete the projects from there. If you're not on Windows, well, switch to Windows (in other words I don't know).

Here's what you do:
If you have saved the project, simply go to wherever you saved it (most likely /Scratch Projects/) and delete the file.
If you haven't saved it, simply close Scratch, and you lose the data

Oh, is it that simple? I'd imagined you'd have to into Program Files x86 or whatever it's called, then go through tons and tons of folders.

Yeah, they're just in a folder in your documents

Re: How do I delete projects from my data?
The default scratch projects folder in Windows is
XP:
C:/Users/User/Documents and Settings/Scratch Projects/
Vista & 7
C:/Users/User/Documents/Scratch Projects/
Mac:
/Users/~Username/Documents/Scratch Projects/
Basically in a folder inside of your documents folder, wherever it is
