First, choose View > Refresh. If that doesn't solve the problem, consider resetting Bridge Preferences, this way:

Start Adobe Bridge and immediately press Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS) until the Reset Settings dialog box appears.
Select all three options--Reset Preferences, Reset Standard Workspaces, and Purge Entire Thumbnail Cache--and then click OK.
Restart Bridge

Right click the image with the label you wish to remove. Select no label from the drop down menue. Should work.

No chips sherlock, that's the part that's not working.

I'm having similar issues, from time to time labels simply cannot be removed with no error message. It almost seems random, sometimes a week later I'll be able to, but no amount of resetting preferences / purging cache will do it, I cannot find any logic. These are not renamed labels, just the default Bridge labels.

The only work around so far has been to unlabel in camera raw, though very inconvenient for non-raw files

Nevermind, other metadata still refuses to write to the same files that cannot be unlabelled in bridge, only in photoshop can I change the metadata without error messages.

Thanks Norm, did full reset, it worked. The red labels went to white, then got rid of them ok. Pity though they go to white. Why can't Bridge remember they were red?

Also: workspaces in upper right bar, some are mine, some are Bridge's, How does one get Bridges ones out of there, and my others that I want there there up there? Thanks!

If you click on the down arrow in that section of the upper right bar and choose Delete Workspace... you will see that only the Numbered workspaces and Vertical are available for deletion.
