Deleting an application

When you delete an application, it is removed from the database and from the list of applications in Developer Studio. The forms, workflow, and data included in the application are not deleted. You must remove them separately.

If you provided an application as a shortcut, tell your user community to delete the application shortcut from their desktops. If users try to start an application after it is deleted from the server, they receive an error message.
