After I deleted a workspace, I noticed the pages that were added into that deleted workspace still appear where "recent components and pages" show. I am still learning the bells n' whistles.

So I have a question from the opposite side of the coin. Do Loop components automatically delete/expire after a certain period of time? My company has set Chat messages to expire every so many days, does MS allow companies to set similar settings for Loop components?
Hello 2k19,
Thank you for the screenshot.
I need to explain to you that deleting a work environment in Loop is not something that takes effect immediately. Your Recent Records synchronizes your open files before you check Delete File. You can think of this action as a kind of shortcut link to open your file. However, when you delete the file, this link fails.
The reason you can't delete this work environment record in Recent is that it is due to the design of the Loop feature. It does not affect any of your existing data files.

i still don't understand why i can't simply delete without tracing back my footsteps? the delete button seems useless
Hello 2k19,
Loop does this automatically after a period of time that you have chosen to delete this workspace.
This is because, after you have been deleting for a while, clicking on a workspace file that you have deleted will bring up a message that this file is unavailable.
If you have any questions about this process, please feel free to keep asking me!
Best wishes

then how do you clear cache in which pages that were once deleted won't appear?
