Deleting history from my own project

[CS0CS0]

Hey. Is there a way to delete the old files from my own project (from history) ? I have a good reason to ask but I would rather not mention it here. If the mod can dm me I am more than happy to give you a good reason why I am asking. Thanks

No problem - just "report" the mod with your deletion request
(Edit: but if you only want old files removed, and not the entire mod, I recommend making that very clear )

Thanks for the reply. I did say old files from the history, I think that should be specific but yeah; NOT the whole mod.
I wanna make sure 1 more thing before I do that. Removing the old versions from history would not change ratings, right? Just making sure the rating that was received for that old version won't disappear.
edit: just checked. no way to report individual old version from history.
I wanted to get rid of ALL versions before 2.05 ( keeping 2.05).
But dont wanna do it if it will alter the ratings.

Thanks for the reply. I did say old files from the history, so yeah. not a whole mod. Is it still the same? just report it from history tab?

Yup, a report is still the way to go.

I don't actually know for sure if removing old versions also removes the ratings (though I would be rather surprised if it did). I will poke around and try to find out, but a test may be the only way to be certain.

OK I just found pretty convincing evidence that removing old resource versons does NOT remove ratings/reviews.

Sounds good thanks, but I do not see how can I report old files from history tab. i can only download them.

OMG. I am an idiot. there is a delete button that pops up next to the download button. In my defense it is invisible unless you hower over it!

Nope that will only softdelete them. Please just hit the report button on your mod.

What do you mean soft delete? I don't see them no more on the history tab. Only the 1 I have deleted. I can't report them any more since they are not there. And I couldn't report them before because there is no such button to do so. I don't wanna delete the whole project / mod. I just wanted to delete the old updates because the latest file got encrypted and did not want to keep the unencrypted ones.
