Can someone please tell me how to remove/delete projects I’ve uploaded to Trimble Connect to share with clients? I was testing how this worked and decided I didn’t like it but now I’m not seeing any options to “delete” project. I only get “leave project” in the web portal and even when I click that I get an error: ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/sketchup/original/3X/8/7/8750e177cdb61387170f69417ce9341fe1876e1e.png) ---

You to to project details on the web app and there is an option to delete ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/sketchup/original/3X/d/a/daa8a8a69b32d6b45f055d6c40cd1b3aa838d80d.jpeg) ---

That’s the thing - when I go there I don’t get the sidebar that @Elmtec-Adam showed: ![Clipboard_11-18-2025_01](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/sketchup/original/3X/5/9/5947c51d411294aee2a581eef82f34328adc338f.jpeg) ---

Open the project. And delete it, don’t leave the project. ---

When I click on the project, I wasn’t getting that left sidebar. I see now though that I needed to go to the top and “open explorer”. All good now. I appreciate the help. Does the “open explorer” sidebar view load for you by default? ![3](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/sketchup/original/3X/2/0/200511bc8442a8229db7ebfe841c13b9b079e800.jpeg) ---

Your toolbar is collapsed… click on the gear icon on the bottom of the left side to get the menu Dave showed ---

This is the view I get when I File → Trimble Connect → Launch Trimble Connect . As I had shown, I need to click on a project but then also Open Explorer on the top in order to get that toolbar @DaveR and @Elmtec-Adam had shown in their screen clips.Theirs seemed to load with that as default when they clicked on a project. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/sketchup/original/3X/5/b/5bd2d9ccb15488d16bac1994fcbd745681616ea6.png) ---

That 3D toggle determines opening it in the 3D viewer or not, which is what you want. It will show the explorer like @sWilliams image. Only admins can delete a project.
