Instructions on how to delete genomes from a user account

Deleting genomes using the Genome Browser

Go to the genome browser view and use the filters to find the genomes you wish to delete. Select them by clicking the box next to each genome's name, and then open the "Selected genomes" box in the top right. Double-check that only the genomes you wish to delete are selected and then click the "bin" icon in the bottom left of the box.

Click the bin icon in the purple highlighted box to remove the selected genomes

Recovering deleted genomes

A thirty day grace period is provided before genomes are fully removed from your account. During this time you can access the binned genomes via the "hamburger" menu icon in the top left of the page. This opens up your account page and allows access to your genome and collection bins.

Click the bin to view any deleted genomes that haven't yet been deleted from the system.
