How do I delete from the list of linked folders?

I can add new folders to this list.

How do I delete from it, considering that the list grows as I work on more projects?
I can only add to list.png

There seems to be no intuitive way to delete from the list or to make it update every time I start a new project.

Thank you.

1. Use a dedicated Media drive.

2. Add that drive to the list.

3. Navigate from the top level of that drive for each new project. Don't try to add a new location for every single project.

I need to partition my hard drive?

How do I delete existing locations from this list?
I know that this may not be the best practice - still, how do I undo it?

There should be a list of mounted drivers in resolve preference.

You should be able to eliminate then from there
W10-19043.1645- Supermicro MB C9X299-PGF - RAM 128GB CPU i9-10980XE 16c 4.3GHz (Oc) Water cooled
Decklink Studio 4K (12.3)
Resolve 18.5.1 / fusion studio 18
GPU 3090ti drivers 512.59 studio

I don't recommend that.

I do recommend adding a new hard, large hard drive dedicated to Media.

Presently I don't have the resources to do that.
When I do, I will.
Thank you.
