Delete Saved Services

PixleyNaz

Is there a way to delete old saved services that we don't need anymore?  I searched through the discussions and searched the manual, but couldn't find an answer.  If I go to Program Files (x86) -> OpenLP, the services aren't listed.

Yes, you can delete them. Like any other document or file in Windows, you have to know where you have saved it first. Check the Documents library - I believe that's the default location. Alternatively, you can run OpenLP and go to File -> Open, and then Right click -> Delete on any old service files you can see.

Thanks, I'll give that a try.  I didn't see them under the Documents folder, but I'll look again or try the other method.  I'm pretty sure I just left everything with the default settings when I installed the program.

Strange - I just checked on my testing system, and it looks like it does default to the Program Files (x86) folder under Windows.  Which is a really bad location (IMO) for the service files. If you can't find them, just open File Explorer and search for .osz and let Windows find them for you.

I agree, that's not a good location for the service files.  I suppose it's possible that they're hidden files, but I don't plan on un-hiding them since I'm not always the one running the computer.  I'll see if I can find them by your other suggested methods.

OpenLP just saves the files where you select. They're not special in any way unless you've done something to them. Check where you saved them.

Good day and may God Bless Raoul and the Team for an unbelievable and amazing software. I just have a question regarding where the Service File is saved. When I try to open a previous Service it shows that it is in

C:\Program Files (x86)\OpenLP

When I navigate to the folder and look for the Service files, they are not there, strangely when I try and open the Service again I see the files from there.

I am working on my Laptop at home running Wondows 10 and OpenLP 2.4.6 and nee to copy the Service File to a stick to use in church.

I have also tried to open a Service from OpenLP, right click on the file that I require and copy, when I paste it in the destination it says the file does not exist.

Thanks you for your assistance.

I don't know where you saved it, because that is particular to your computer, and when you save a service, it asks you where you want to save it.
