How do I delete a folder from the favorites and have it revert to "Not assigned"?

I am running Traktor Pro 4 on macOS.

    If you mean the ones just above the browser column headers pretty sure you can't. I create an empty playlist called "not assigned" and drag it into slot one I want to delete. Not ideal, but it keeps things tidy.

    Thanks @mykejb. It's amazing that favorites cannot be deleted. I like your work-around. Thanks for the tip!

    A little late and I don't recommend you do this unless you are comfortable. But browse to the folder wherever you are saving your Traktor settings, open up 'Traktor Setting.tsi', and search for:
    <Entry Name="Browser.Shortcuts"

    There will be two attributes in that tag—one Type="7" and another Value"blahblahblah". In the Value one, search for the entry you don't want and replace it with ; (a semicolon). If you want to clear them all out and start from scratch replace it with 12 semicolons like this:
    Value=";;;;;;;;;;;;"

    This is specifically for Windows but I'm sure the .tsi file is somewhere on OSX too. If you don't know how XML works or if you would never open up the windows registry, again, I do NOT recommend mucking about with this. Having said that, it totally works as long as you make sure there's a ; for any empty entry and you don't introduce syntax errors to the XML.
