Hi Jennifer,

Active and Deleted histories can be permanently deleted using from the History pane "Options -> Saved Histories", then at the top of the middle panel click on "Advanced Search", then click on "status: all". Check the box for the histories to be discarded and then click on the button "Permanently delete".

Full instructions with a video walk-through are here:

Best,

I need to clear space from my quota of usage in my galaxy main user account, but I deleted 2 histories, rather than permanently deleting them. How can I access them again so that I may permanently delete them to clear the space?

Thank you,

Jennifer
