Delete Multiple Track Folders

[Woodsglen]

Title says it all.  I can't figure out how to delete multiple track folders - short of going one - by one and delete track folder... yes.. over and over.

Thanks

I do not believe there is any way to delete multiple track folders in one step.

cannot group select track folders?

Well, you CAN select multiple track folders, if each folder contains at least one track, HOWEVER, and that only offers the option to delete the selected tracks - there is no option presented, at that point, to also/instead delete the track folders themselves.  If deletion of the selected tracks is chosen, then only the selected tracks are deleted, NOT the track folders themselves.

If there are no tracks in a track folder, that track folder can be deleted, HOWEVER  the track folder will not display an indication that it has been selected.  Nonetheless, it can be deleted.

If a track folder DOES contain tracks, then when the folder is selected, the track folder and all tracks within, are shown as selected, and if the track folder is deleted, then a pop-up asks if Cakewalk should also delete all tracks within the folder, in addition to deleting the track folder.  Please note that even if one or more tracks within that track folder are NOT selected, if the track folder itself is deleted, and the pop-up option to delete all tracks within that track folder is given the OK, then even deselected tracks in the folder (and the folder) will be deleted.

If a track folder does contain tracks, individual tracks can be selected, or all tracks in the folder, and the folder, can be selected, the track folder itself will not be deleted if only the selected tracks within the folder are deleted.

SO - in any case, I do not believe there is any current way to delete multiple track folders.

It appears that may make an excellent feature request....
