Removing objects in the fence about nofences HOT 3 CLOSED

Thanks, it works, I did not know about this key combination.

Hi,
The fence only stores references to the file. When you do a right-click on the item however, you get the normal Windows Explorer menu. Clicking Delete on there actually deletes the file, since it is Windows Explorer.

What you want to do is shift + right-click on the item. This will open the fence-specific menu, including an item called Delete item which only deletes the reference, not the file itself.

I understand that this is not the most intuitive way of handling the situation, and will definitely need see a UX improvement.

Hope this helps

Glad it worked.
In a future release, I'll try to make this more intuitive. Also, there should be a documentation page where the usage is explained so confusions like this don't occur anymore.
