You can't remove the source form there, but data sources will be automatically removed from that list if you remove the queries that are using the data source.

Welcome to the community.

Your question is rather vague, my best guess is you want to go to Edit Queries and delete those that are using a specific Excel data source.

Otherwise please elaborate on your requirements.

Hi @raguyazhin,

You no need to remove in data source settings. As @MarcelBeug said, If you remove all the sheets/tables from the 'Fields' that depends particular excel workbook, then PowerBI itself removed your source workbook.

Hi Thangavel,

Just right click on the sheet name in the Fields section and choose delete..
