Asked by reinhard

Hi,

project files still shown in file-->recent projects when I manually delete them from disc.
Maybe you can implement a way to delete a project from within openshot?

greetings

I think the solution is for the Recent Projects to be smarter, and not list projects that have been deleted, ya know? Thanks.

I'm not sure I understand you - or you me, because of my broken english? ;)
So, what is the right way to delete projects, that are no longer needed, so that they are no longer shown in the recent projects list?
Because it seems to make no sense to show projects that are no longer existent on disk...

Hello Reinhard,

I have just been tidying up our bug tracker and answer tracker, and this is the last answer which is left open :-)

May I ask you to mark it as solved if it is solved in Bug #401872: Recent projects show deleted proejcts

Many thanks, Helen

Hi Helen,

the manually deleted project are not longer shown, right, but I still don't know what will happen with the temporary files created by openshot?
Are they remaining on disk and occupy/waste disk space?

Maybe it is still needed to have a mechanism to delete projects from within openshot which take care about temporary/no longer needed project specific files...

OpenShot creates a 'thumbnail' folder where ever you save a project. That
is the only folder that would need to be manually cleaned up.
