How Do I Delete the Money Data File?

You can delete the Money data file, although not from within the Money program.
To delete a Money data file, you use either the My Computer window or the Windows Explorer program.

An up-front caution about deletion of the Money data file

Before I explain the steps for deleting the Money data file, let me point
out that you would never do this except in the very special circumstance in which you truly did want to destroy the Money data file. For example, you might want to delete a Money data file if you used the data file to learn the program and then didn’t want it cluttering your hard disk. Or perhaps, you might want to delete a Money data file if you used to use Money but now use Quicken and you have already exported the Money data file to Quicken.

Steps for deleting the Money data file

Assuming that you do want to delete the Money data file, take the following steps:

1. Display the My Computer window, or start the Windows Explorer program.

To display the My Computer window, simply double-click the My Computer icon, which appears on the Windows desktop. To start the Windows Explorer program, click the Start button, choose Programs, and then choose Windows Explorer.

2. Find the folder with the Money data file you want to delete.

If you use the My Computer window to delete a Money data file, first select the disk with the Money data file and then select the folder with the Money data file.
To do this, double-click the disk, which will appear in the My Computer window, and then select the folder. If you stored the Money data file in a subfolder—a folder within a folder—you will need to continue this process, selecting the folder within the folder.

If you use the Windows Explorer program to delete a Money file, you follow essentially the same process. Use the list of folders, which appears on the left side of the Windows Explorer window, to identify the folder holding the Money data file. After you have done this, Windows lists the folders and the files in the selected folder in the right pane of the Windows Explorer window. Scroll through this list until you find the Money data file—make sure it’s the right Money data file—andthen select it.

3. Confirm that the Money data file you have located and selected is the correct one.
Obviously, you need to make sure the Money data file you are about to delete is the correct one. Note that this confirmation step is important because you might not be familiar with the names that Money uses for its various data files. Make sure that you really are deleting the Money file you don’t need—not the Money file you want to use in the future.

4. Delete the Money data file.

To delete the selected Money data file, choose the File menu’s Delete command.
When Windows asks you to confirm your deletion using the Confirm File Delete message box, click the Yes button. Windows then deletes the Money data file you have selected.

How to undelete a deleted Money data file Windows moves the files you delete from their original folder location to a new folder named the Recycle Bin. Eventually, deleted files are removed from the Recycle Bin; however, up until that time you can retrieve a deleted file by moving it out of the Recycle Bin back to its original location. For more information about how to do this, refer to your Windows documentation.
