Hi Suzie, This wiki has a screencast that shows the exact steps to do this: http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Learn/Managing%20Datasets#Delete_vs_Delete_Per... See "Watch how it works in the *Managing Histories <http://screencast.g2.bx.psu.edu/quickie_19_managing_histories/flow.html> * screencast." Hopefully this helps, Jen Galaxy team On 5/6/13 10:46 AM, Suzie Hight wrote:

Hello,

Is there a way to purge deleted histories which I initially did not "permanently delete"? I just deleted several histories in an effort to free up more disk space, but I see no way to purge them now that they no longer show up in the list.

Thanks,

Suzie
