# Discarding a CVS repository location

Note: You cannot discard a location if you have projects in the Workbench that are shared with that location.

To discard a CVS repository location:

1. Switch to the CVS Repository Exploring perspective or add the CVS Repositories view to the current perspective.
2. In the CVS Repositories view, select the repository location that you want to delete from the Workbench.
3. Select Discard Location from the pop-up menu or press the DELETE key. Press Yes when prompted.
