In this article, you will get all the information about delete multiple persons in FTM 2019. Sometimes it is a system-generated problem that we see multiple people with the same name in our family tree maker software. You can use any of the charts in the publish workspace in FTM.
Delete Multiple Persons
It is more difficult to remove several persons at once in Family Tree Maker (FTM) 2019 than it is to remove one person at a time.
Follow the Steps to Delete Multiple Persons :
You can effectively remove several people by following these steps:
Method 1: Eliminating People One at a Time
1. Launch the 2019 Family Tree Maker.
2. Go to the workplace for people.
3. Find and pick the person you wish to remove in the Tree View.
4. From the menu, select Person > Delete Person (or right-click and select Delete Person).
5. In the pop-up window, confirm the deletion.
6. For every individual you wish to eliminate, repeat the procedure.
Method 2: Eliminating a Group of People Using a Different Tree
If you must remove several linked people:
1. Make a Backup: Before making significant deletions, save a backup of your tree by selecting File > Backup.
2. Export a Novel Tree Devoid of Unwanted Individuals:
⦁ Select File > Export.
⦁ Choose Selected Individuals: Only the individuals you wish to retain should be chosen.
⦁ Make a new file out of this.
3. Open the freshly saved tree, which now does not include the people you want to remove.
Method 3: Eliminating a Whole Tree
If you wish to remove every person:
1. Launch the Family Tree Maker app.
2. To get back to the home screen, select File > Close.
3. In the Plan Workspace, find the tree.
4. Choose Delete Tree with a right-click on the tree.
Deleting People
Although Family Tree Maker 2019 does not have a direct built-in tool for deleting several people, there are other ways to do this effectively. Users must carefully manage removals to prevent losing crucial data because bulk deletion is not supported.
To avoid irreparable loss the safest method starts with backing up your tree. If you need to remove more than one person the simplest way is to remove each person by hand but this can take a lot of time. A useful workaround for bigger groups of people is to export a selective tree that only contains the persons you wish to keep. With this technique, you can accomplish mass deletion by making a new version of your tree devoid of undesirable people.
Delete Tree File
The best way to get rid of a whole family tree is to delete the tree file from within FTM. Users should use caution, though, as deletions may impact online information, particularly if their tree is synchronized with Ancestry.com.
Conclusion
Users must carefully plan their deletions using backups and selective exports to preserve data integrity because Family Tree Maker does not come with a native bulk deletion option. Users can effectively maintain their family trees while lowering hazards by using these techniques. If you need any help you can call us at +1-800-410-2443 or you can use live chat also.
