Removing multiple tables from Data section

Hi

I have 2 questions please.

 

1) I have loaded to power BI 4 tables. Then I deleted them in Report Window but when I went to Data section, I still see them there? Why is that?

2) In Data section, can I delete multiple tables at same time? Now I can only right click and delete from the Model. 

 

Thank you very much.

@lastnn30 , If have hidden the table, then only you can see them in data model section. I doubt deleted table can be seen anywhere.


Can you share a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.
