Remove projects from qt creator

Question

How to remove projects from qt creator, I can delete files from project view but I cant delete my .pro file and my main project folder.

Answer 1

It's a littel dirty way, but go (on windows) into the AppData\Roaming\QtCreator.ini file and in [ProjectExplorer] remove the projects from:

• RecentProjects\FileNames
• RecentProjects\DisplayNames

On restarting QtCreator only your needed projects will displayed.

For Linux, edit ~/.config/QtProject/QtCreator.ini

Answer 2

It's not possible to remove .pro files from QtCreator. There is an option as shown on screenshot, but it doesn't work.

You're not able to completely remove your project for QtCreator. For this you'll have to close project first and manually remove whole folder with .pro file. But to be serious no .pro file means no Qt project at all. qmake won't be able build project for you without it.
