Overleaf v1 and v2: How to delete a project in overleaf?

Thanks to the UI developers of overleaf.

It looks like the DELETE button is hidden deep somewhere in overleaf.

It was very difficult for me to find the delete button, though I checked at all the menu and buttons.

If somebody had had a luck deleting projects in overleaf, I would greatly appreciate the method.

Thanks.

There seem to be two ways:

  1. Version 1 (or V1) projects can be managed using the version 1 dashboard.

  2. Projects created under version 2 have to be archived first. Once this is done, click on the Archived Projects menu item where you can "delete [them] forever".

To delete a project from overleaf, you have to save it in the archive, than you can delete it permanently from the archive.

Save the project in the archive:
