In Adobe Photoshop (I'm currently using CS5), is it possible to remove the cyan-coloured guide lines? I'm talking about the ones added by View > Guides.. > [horizontal/vertical guide choice].

I can't find it anywhere [link removed] technology on Google nor this site!

You can remove individual Guides by grabbing them with the Move tool and dragging them off screen.

In CS6, and probably CS5, go View>Show> and uncheck "Guides."

-edit And at times, it's View> and uncheck "Extras"

Wait – was Clear Guides not available back then? 

Then a Script might be used to remove them.
