How do I remove a run from my experiment?

If you need to remove a run from your experiment, you can do this from the Import Data screen. First, select the run you want to remove in the list at the left of the screen. To remove the selected run, you can either:

• Press the Delete key on your keyboard, or
• Click the Actions button above the ion intensity map and select the Remove run option from the popup menu (show me).
• Right-click on the run in the list and select the Remove this run option from the popup menu
• If the run failed to import correctly, click the Remove run button in the red Data import errors panel at the right

You can also delete multiple runs. Select multiple runs by holding Ctrl and clicking, or select a range of runs by holding Shift and clicking. Then to delete all selected runs either:

• Press the Delete key on your keyboard, or
• Right-click on any selected run in the list and select the Remove these N runs option from the popup menu

After taking any of the above actions, you will be prompted for confirmation before the run/runs are removed.

Note: although the runs are removed from the experiment, the original data files are not deleted from your computer, so you can still import them again later or use them in another experiment.
