<H3>Removing Files from Your Workspace</H3>
<p>
To remove files Perforce-managed files from your workspace, select <b>Remove from workspace </b>
from the pulldown menu on the Files tab.
<p> <B>To remove multiple files:</B>
<OL>
<LI>Click the <B>Files</B> tab.
<LI>Select the directory that contains the files that you want to remove.
<li>Select <B>Remove from workspace...</B> from the <b>Action</b> menu.
<li>Choose the files to be removed. See <a href="restrictfiles.html">Restricting
Files Used in Commands</a> for more information. The form also enables you
to preview the file removal.
</OL>
<p> <B>To remove a single file:</B>
<p>
<OL>
<LI>Click the <B>Files</B> tab.
<LI>Click the file that you want to remove.
<li>Select <b>Remove from workspace</b> from the <b>Action</b> menu.
</OL>
<p> Only unopened files are removed. <a href="defs.html#openedfiles">Opened files</a>
must be <a href="submit.html">submitted</a> or <a href="revert.html">reverted</a>
first before P4Web can remove them from your workspace.
<p> If you use any other means of removing Perforce-managed files—simply
erasing them, for example—the Perforce metadata about your workspace will
be incorrect. To reconcile Perforce's metadata with the actual state of your
workspace, use the <b>Remove from workspace</b> command on files you've erased.
To find out which files you erased:
<OL>
<LI>Click the <B>Files</B> tab.
<LI>Click the first radio button in the <B>File Filter </B>box.
<LI>From that pulldown menu, select <b>Files missing from workspace</b>.
<li>Click the <B>Filter</B> button.
</OL>
