would like to delete (under gear’) an archived Flame ‘Archive’ or ‘Achive Session’, but ‘delete’ is always greyed out.
In the past I erased Archives with Finder (macOS) but if there are multiple Archives (of same project) under the same folder I am afraid I could delete the wrong thing…
What could be the reason that ‘Delete’ is not available(greyed out)?
Missed this last year Joe, sorry about that. One does not simply delete Archives from Flame. It’s a bit weird that way. Basically, you can’t/done delete portions of Flame Archives. The only way is to delete an entire archive and re-write the intended portion.
If you want to remove all the recent archive list in the archive tab, go to the “/opt/Autodesk/archive” directory and you can delete all the files there. The next time you refresh the archive tab, all the entries will be gone.
Just be aware that these are also backups of your archive headers. So if you main archive header gets corrupt, there is a chance to restore using these headers. Deleting them removes that protection. So it’s up to you.
