Thanks for the response, though they're not listed in the main pane of the datasets, only at the side. Weird (though I am a newbie 😄 )

Even I am not sure what could be the possible reasons. Ideally both places should reflect same items. You may try a different browser and see if it makes any difference.

Hover your mouse over the dataset that you want to delete. Ellipses (...) should appear to the right of the dataset name. Click the ellipses and select "Remove" from the fly-out menu.

Hi @Greg_Deckler ,

 

I'm trying to remove datasets which I now longer have access to, though I don't have the option to do so (see below) and they don't appear in the dataset view.

 

Any thoughts upon how I could delete them please? It's not mission critical, they're just in the way!

 

Thanks in advance.
