I uploaded a bunch of images to help a sprite type look like it’s walking. What I didn’t know was that the images were not cropped well. I cropped all the images and want to upload them again but cannot because the system says that the file names already exist. How do I remove the old files so I can upload the new ones?
My bad. There is a files location that I should have seen that will allow me to delete unneeded files.

One other solution is to rename your sprite before uploading it onto Thunkable. This is what I did when I faced the same problem you did.

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
If I have an… asset such as home_icon.png in a project and I upload a new file called home_icon.png, Thunkable will display an error ("Duplicate asset name.") and will not upload the new file.
To replace an asset with the same name (e.g. an image), I currently have to:
1. Delete the existing asset.
2. Upload the new asset with the same name.
3. Assign the asset to any components that had been using it.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
Thunkable should prompt you to replace the existing file and then it should replace it in whatever components are using it as a background picture. (or sound source, etc.).
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
Therapy.
**Which platform are you asking for?**
Thunkable X.
