Hello All,

In either a Virtual Station Or a Real Controller.

Now I see where to delete it from the Virtual Station, from the HOME Folder in the system files.  
But can’t do this with the pendant using the “FlexPendant Explorer” screen. So I am assuming that I can’t do that with a Real Pendant either.

So I am guessing that I would have to be connected to the real controller and use FIle Transfer to delete a real- screen.

Hello,

you can use the “File transfer” in the “Controller” ribbon in RobotStudio to delete your Screenmaker DLL files in the Home-Directory of a real controller.  
Afterward, you have to reset the FlexPendant via the reset button on its backside or you have to switch off and on the controller.  
A warm start of the controller will not exchange the DLL on the FlexPendant.
