But you can’t delete it again.

Hi Peter, what version of eM Client are you currently using? What mail service are you using in eM client?
you should be able to organize your categories, add or subtract the categories from the list in the Categories setup.

Thank you,
Paul.

I am using version 6 (see screenshot).
I have different account included. Google contacts are one of them. I can delete the category in the category manager, but when I take a look to my contacts they are still there and when I go back to the caterory manager, they are back again. I have deletet all links between any contact and the category I want to delete.

Hi Peter, I’m afraid these are not eM Client categories, but rather Gmail’s labels that are setup on the server. These unfortunately can not be deleted from eM Client, but you have to access your webmail in order to remove them. Can you please make sure the categories you have in mind are in fact labels?

Thank you,
Paul.

Hi Paul, that was also my first idea, but I checked the categories on the web at my google calendar, but they do not exist there. E.g. a category My Contacts does not exist. I also created in eM client a category called Notizen. Now I want to delete it again, it is not possible and I do not see this category on the web calender.

Can I check something else.

Hi again Peter, can you please send me an email to mcgregor@emclient.com with a reference link to this forum topic?
Before you do, please try to update your application to this version http://www.emclient.com/dist/v6.0.21151/setup.msi and check if the issue persists.

Thank you,
Paul.
