cannot delete character style

hello, in a file I have a character style for hyperlinks that I can't delete. Every time I delete it and make a new hyperlink the style returns. I think I copied and pasted this from another old file. Can anyone help me delete it permanently?

Yes it will create a new style called Hyperlink.

When you create a new Hyperlink you can change the character style in the drop down list

Alternatively - you can leave the Hyperlink style

In the Character Style - edit this style

 

Click "Reset to Base"

Set it to be Based On - and select the Character Style you want

For all the settings - delete an the information - 

 

This way it will inherit the Based On style.

So the hyperlink style will inherit the character style you have selected.

 

If you don't want it to be based on a character style

Then don't use the Based On

And just set all the infomration in the style to nothing

leave all fields blank.

Give here example of your file through some dropbox/yadisk. And may be some of us will look into it.
