How do you completely delete projects in Xcode?
Xcode 9
- In Finder, delete the project folder. (If you don't know where it is, open the project in Xcode and right click on project name in the Project Navigator. Choose Show in Finder.)
- In Xcode, remove the deleted project from the menu. (Go to File > Open Recent > Clear Menu. This will clear all of your recent projects from this menu and the startup menu.)
For Xcode 4, you can go to the Organizer by clicking the button at the top right, and then you'll see your projects. Right click the one you want to remove, and choose "Remove from Organizer..." This will remove all the associated data. I don't know if this is an option in previous versions of Xcode.
