Delete project - XML file still remain???

When I delete a project, the XML still exists. How can we remove the XML file automatically whenever we delete a project?

Thanks

    The command is 'Remove' not 'Delete' it removes the project from the workspace.

    That is expected behaviour.

    Yes the project is removed from the workspace but the XML file is still around when you use windows explorer to go to the place I saved the project. I want to know whenever I remove a project, I want its XML to be removed automatically as well.

    That is very bad idea; it is not expected behaviour, it fails the Principle of least surprise and is potentially dangerous.

    SOAPUI is not a file manager use the correct tool for the job.
