Remove Folders from your Mylio Photos Library

As you add media to Mylio Photos, you may occasionally find folders that don’t belong in your Mylio Photos Library. Mylio Photos’ direct control over your file system allows you to remove a folder and its contents from your library (or permanently delete it, when necessary).

When you Remove a folder from Mylio Photos, the folder and its contents will no longer be displayed in your Mylio Photos Library and, if you are a Mylio Photos+ subscriber, it will not be available to sync between your devices. However, that folder will still be on your hard drive and accessible via your system’s file browser.

1. Click Folders icon in the left sidebar.
2. Select a top-level folder to remove.
3. Right-click your selection or tap the kebab icon in the right sidebar to access the Actions menu and select Remove Folder from Catalog.

*NOTE: Only top-level folders can be removed. For example, if you have a folder called Animals, and it includes two sub-folders called Zebras and Elephants, you can’t remove the Elephants folder without removing the top-level Animals folder (and its other sub-folders) as well.
