How do I delete one of my projects?

To delete a project, make sure you're logged in. Go to "my stuff". Check the box under the project, and then click the button above that says "delete selected projects."

Re: How do I delete one of my projects?

Right now you cannot remove projects from a gallery, but that functionality should be coming very soon!!!

Re: How do I delete one of my projects?

To remove projects completely from the scratch website:
  On your "My Stuff" page, select the projects you want to get rid of and click on "delete selected projects".

To remove projects on your own machine:
   Projects are just files, and both Mac OS X provide fairly easy way to remove files from directories or folders.  If you don't know how to do this on your machine, ask someone familiar with the machine.  (If you don't know how to delete files, you probably shouldn't be doing it, so I won't explain further.)

Re: How do I delete one of my projects?

Just go to my computer. Click on drive C. Then go to Program Files. Scroll down until you see a folder named scratch. Click on it. Then you will see a list of your scratch folders. Then click on the one that has the project you want to delete in it. The right click on the project and select cut. Thats how you get rid of projects on windows.

Re: How do I delete one of my projects?

The default project files directory (for WindowsXP) is C:\\Program Files\Scratch\Projects. Go there, choose a category and you'll see your project files. Drag your desired file in the Bin to delete it.

Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>

Re: How do I delete one of my projects?

If you want to delete a project ( a normal project that you have shared and is not in any Galleries) just tick the box next to the project(s) and then click 'Remove selected Project's. p.s the project CAN be in a gallery if you want.

And if you want to delete a Project from a Gallery, just click 'Remove' next to the desired Project you wantto delete.

Find the projects folder by doing a search.

Or you could just find all .sb files by doing a search for *.sb .

Re: How do I delete one of my projects?

I am having a similar issue as AaronM08.  I can only see my scratch projects in the Projects directory from WITHIN the scratch interface (which has no delete option).  When I look in the directory from Windows Explorer, the .sb files I have saved do not appear!  I have scratch installed on both an XP and a Vista machine and this problem only occurs on Vista.  Searching for .sb files only turns up the preinstalled files, the projects I saved are not visible or deletable.

When I save to "Computer" from with scratch, however, I can see the files - but I now have a pile of .sb files lying around in the Project directory, only visible from within scratch and apparantly not deletable.

Any advice on how to delete files in Vista which exhibit this problem would be appreciated.

Vista does a funny trick where it puts the files in one place and makes them appear to be in another.  On my Vista machine my Scratch projects end up in

"C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Scratch"

Where "Owner" is my username on the machine (replace with your username).  Your machine probably has a similar hidden folder where your Scratch projects are hanging out.  When you find them, set up a shortcut to the folder.

Heliosa, not exactly.

First, do what you said until you said about the scratch folders. Open the projects folder. Then, locate the file and then, right click it, then press delete. It will go to the Recycle Bin, and go there and click the delete button to delete it forever.

Hope that helps!


Sorry for never being on... I'm on Onverse now. So get inside, and Onverse yourself. Cya 'round.

I don't think so unless you have it already saved on your computer.
