A confirmation dialog will appear, asking if you really want to delete the material. Click on

to confirm and complete the deletion process.
Important: Deleting a material that is part of a standard learning path or a skill atom within adaptive learning paths will also remove it from those paths, meaning learners will lose access to the material. We do not retain copies of deleted materials in published learning paths.
