 <h2><a name="deleting">Removing files from the Cygwin distribution</a></h2>
 
-To cause files to be removed from the distribution, upload an empty file with the name of the file that you want deleted, prefixed with a "<tt>-</tt>".
+Removing files is not normally needed, as old versions which aren't referenced
+by <tt>setup.ini</tt>, and are thus are no longer installable, will be removed
+periodically.
+
+However, if you do need to remove a file from the distribution, upload an empty
+file with the name of the file that you want deleted, prefixed with a
+"<tt>-</tt>".
 
 <p>For example, if you want to delete the file <tt>foo-1.2-1.tar.xz</tt> then upload an empty file named:<pre> -foo-1.2-1.tar.xz</pre></p>
 
 <p>Note that files are not actually deleted; they are moved to a vault where they will be removed after some indeterminate amount of time.</p>
 
-<p>This technique should work with directories but some confusion may arise if you delete a directory, recreate it, and attempt to remove it again.  This scenario has not been tested.</p>
