Hello;

I have created a new project and I am working out of a book C++ for Dummies.  The book came with a code block installtion CD.  I have saved a first attempt at writing a program by going to File and Save on the tool bar.  To build the conversion I simply choose Build from the tool bar and moused down to Build again.  Then saved the project by Choosing File and Save.  In running the progam I get  several errors but 0 warnings.  I would like to attempt this project again.  How can I delete this project and start over?  I have also tried help icon  to bogged down by information that is very lengthly. If anyone could help.  Thanks one and all.

Just delete all files belonging to the project (including the *.cbp-file) with your favourite file-explorer (they are normally placed in a folder named like your project, but that might be different, if you have changed some of the default settings in the wizard).

After closing and reopening C::B it will also disappear from the recent projects list.

Thanks for the reply;

Unfortunately I don't understand when you say "Your favorite File Explorer" Where I Should find that In order for me to delete all files belonging to the project?  When you say Including *cpb-file.  when creating my project .cbp-file are the last three letters within the Console Application Dialog Box under "Resulting filename".   The filename name in this instance is  C:\CPP_Program\Chap01\Conversion\Conversion.cbp.  Also when you mention wizard am not sure what  that is?  When I  installed Codeblocks I choose full installation.I don't believe I changed the default setting in wizard while installing.  I have checked C Drive on my computer and  there files that  pertain to the project that I named conversion on Codeblocks.   I f you could guide me through one more time it would help me out of this dilema a great deal.   Thank you.  John.
