Deleting Unwanted Templates in Layout Pro 2021 - Windows 10

Just getting used to Sketchup Pro 2021 after learning on Web Free version. I am now tackling learning Layout and in the process I have created a number of Layout Templates which to be honest are rubbish and cluttering up my welcome page (I’m sure all early learners will have had the same problem). I want to get rid of these unwanted Layout templates but totally unable to find out how to do this on a Windows 10 machine - I have seen the YouTube video about how to delete but but this is only for Mac and there are non for Windows. Can anyone please help

They are stored in a normally hidden folder. On Windows it would be in User/AppData/Roaming/…/SketchUp 2021/LayOut/Templates. Make the AppData folder visible in the Windows File Explorer and you can get to that location.

Many thanks for your very quick response, I had seen this advice before whilst searching Google but I have no such sub directories. I have an Apps sub directory but no AppData. Cannot see anywhere a “Roaming” directory. In the Program Files Directory I managed to get down to Sketchup 2021 / Layout/ but no Template directory in sight. Why is it so hard to delete files I have produced ???

As I wrote, it’s a hidden directory under your user name. If you go to Preferences>Folders in LayOut you will see the exact path.
