Is it possible to quickly delete projects by deleting their folder from My Paratext 9 Projects, instead of opening each project in Paratext and deleting them there?

All I want to do is remove them from my computer and not do anything with them in the Registry or S/R server.

Thanks,

Yes. Since Paratext 8.0, projects are entirely contained within their owning folder. Deleting the folder will be the same as if you opened the Delete Project dialog and chose to delete it from only your machine.

I think so. If the project is part of a layout, that window will still open but should give you an error that it needs to be downloaded. If you still have a role in the project, it will still show up in your send/receive list.
