How do you fully delete a rails project? I have deleted the whole
project in the rails application folder, but it does NOT delete the
SQL and other files within the whole project. Can anyone tell me how I
can do this? Or do I have to find every file it made and delete it
manually?

So, when you type “rm -rf my_app_path/*” it leaves stuff? What OS? How
are you deleting it?
I am simply going to the rails application folder, right clicking on
the file, and deleting it (GUI). My OS is XP. Is this how I am suppose
to delete it.

Doing exactly that actually works for me - it deletes the folder and all
files are gone.
However, when I right-clicked on the name of the Rails application
folder and clicked on ‘Properties’, I notice that it shows the ‘Read
Only’ property in a partial grey indicating that some files may have the
Read Only attribute set.
Can you try to click on that to bring it to a proper black (indicating
it is read only) and then again to clear that attribute. Try to delete
it again after that. See if that helps.
Cheers,
Mohit.

Yes. That’s pretty much all there is to it.
