Wikis can be removed by deleting specific folders on the file system.
</p>
<p>
For example, to remove <b>Simple Wikipedia</b>.
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Delete the wiki directory under <spanclass='path'>C:\xowa\wiki\simple.wikipedia.org</span>
</li>
<li>
Delete the css directory under <spanclass='path'>C:\xowa\user\anonymous\wiki\simple.wikipedia.org</span>
</li>
<li>
Delete the files directory under <spanclass='path'>C:\xowa\file\simple.wikipedia.org</span>
</li>
</ul>
<p>
Note that there may also be images in your commons directory which can only be removed by deleting the entire directory: <spanclass='path'>C:\xowa\file\commons.wikimedia.org</span>
</p>
<p>
For example, if you have viewed the Earth article in <i>Simple Wikipedia</i> you will have downloaded the <i>The Earth seen from Apollo 17.jpg</i> to <spanclass='path'>C:\xowa\file\commons.wikimedia.org</span> not to <spanclass='path'>C:\xowa\file\simple.wikipedia.org</span>. Note that commons is the destination because the actual online url for the image is <ahref="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:The"rel="nofollow"class="external free">https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:The</a> Earth seen from Apollo 17.jpg.
