# Remove a favourite

Take the star off a file or folder, from Favorites or from the item's own menu. Nothing else about the item changes.

Taking a star off only shortens your list. The file or folder stays exactly where it was, with the same name, shares and labels, and colleagues see no difference at all.

## From Favorites

- Go to **Favorites** and find the row.
- Select the filled orange star at the right-hand end of the row. Point at it first if you want to be sure: its name is **Remove from favorites**.

The row disappears at once, and the count at the top drops by one. There is no confirmation, because nothing has been lost: star the item again from its folder whenever you like.

## From the item's own menu

Wherever the item has a row menu, in its folder, in **Recent Files** or on a label's list, select the three dots and then **Unfavorite**. It does the same thing.

> **Warning:**
>
> **Unfavorite is not Delete**
>
> The two sit on the same menu. **Unfavorite** changes only your list; **Delete** sends the item to Trash for everybody who uses its folder. Check which one you're selecting.
