Hello Apoorv Tiwari,

In the welcome screen of the XD, click on the Manage links, it will redirect to creative cloud.. in that top left corner there are five options, click on published links.. all the published links will be displayed, in the thumbnail of the file left top corner one checkbox is there , check it and select delete, the deleted will be stored in deleted tab.. again there you can delete permanently..

Hope it helps.

Hi everyone!
I have done the all steps you have mentioned above and deleted the XD link from myself but although I have deleted that link,  the share link  is opened  and I want to delete it as soon as possible. 
How can I do it? Can you help me, please.

I have the same problem. Some project links are still public and working fine even after I deleted it a month before.
How to fix this?

This is crazy, in 2022 still I can't delete the link in XD file. Somebody please help!


Hi, I understand what you're saying and had the same issue. I could delete them via the assets link, but couldn't remove them from XD. Yikes! BUT I've found a solution - select the shared links blue button in the upper left hand corner (the thing you're trying to get rid of) then click on the prototype tab and de-select the little blue house (home icon)  next to that blue link you're trying to get rid of. You'll see the link disappear, then return to the 'Design' tab and the link will be gone. You should be able to create a new link now using whatever artboards you want to use. The solution is a little strange, but it worked for me so I thought I'd share it with you. Let me know if it works or if you have any other questions.
