I cannot seem to delete files from the sound forge 8.0.
How can this be done? I want to clean this thing out and start over.

Dunno, i've never tried. But opening up windows explorer and managing your files there should work fine. That's that i always do.

Hi Harold,

You should be able to right-click files in any of the open or save dialog boxes and delete files that way, but you're better off doing what Chienworks suggested and just use Windows Explorer. Navigate to your audio file folder and simply select the files and hit the Delete key on your computer keyboard. Then you'll also need to empty the recycle bin to delete them permanently.
