Default Deleting unused files question

Hi All,
Going to the audio files menu in my sessions, I've 'removed' all unused files but not chosen not the 'delete' unused files.
Will choosing the 'delete' option here, finally pare down the session file size by canning all those bad takes permanently?
Choosing 'remove' not 'delete' seems to have little effect.
And no, I'm not using these files in any other session (althought the names may be the same to audio files in other session).

Any help appreciated,
J.D

"Remove" will do only that. Delete is what will reduce the folder size.

Just make sure the two sessions don't use the same "audio files" folder.

cheers,

I delete but obviously you have to be very careful and also have a complete backup copy w/audio files in case you screw up.
