Hi @beaconfbb 

In desktop view , click for the data model , and then click the “Delete from model” , you can directly delete the data model, including the records in the data source settings .

@Syndicate_Admin thank you very much, your advice helped, my problem was solved,

In my case, 2 folders were duplicated, and when I selected the same path, one was automatically deleted.

I usually right-click and the data source, click on "change source" and provide the same information as the other data source and Power BI removes one of them.
