Deleting a station

The Station Copier lets you delete any station, either in your User Home (left side) or in the opened platform’s daemon User Home (right side). Be careful when deleting stations, as there is no undo.

You are working in Workbench running on a PC and are connected to the remote station.
  1. In the PC, expand Platform and double-click Station Copier.
    The Station Copier view opens.

  2. Before deleting a running station, make a backup copy first.
    If desired, when backing up, you can rename the station using some a temporary name to flag it for later housekeeping.
  3. Select the station to delete and click Delete.
    A confirmation window opens.

  4. To confirm the deletion, click Yes.
    The Station Copier deletes the entire selected station directory including all subdirectories and file contents.

    Special notification does not occur if you choose to delete a running station (you may briefly see a stop-station popup, with the opportunity to Abort).
