From the "View" menu, select "Workspaces". You'll see all of the workspaces you've created. Select the workspaces you want to delete and click "Edit" -> "Delete Workspace", or right-click and select "Delete Workspace". If the workspace is "locked" to prevent changes, you'll get an error message.
To unlock the workspace, click "Edit" (or right-click and click "Edit Workspace") to pull up the workspace editor, uncheck the "locked" checkbox, and save your changes. You can delete the workspace once it's unlocked.
In my experience, the workspace will continue to be shown in the drop-down list until you click on it, at which point p4v will figure out you've deleted it and remove it from the list.
Both of these operations restore a set of files to a previous state and are essentially faster, safer ways of undoing mistakes than using the p4 obliterate command (and you don't need admin access to use them).
In the case of "Rollback...", this could be any number of files, even an entire depot. You can tell it to rollback to a specific revision, changelist, or label. The files are restored to the state they were in at the time of creation of that revision, changelist, or label.
In the case of "Back Out Submitted Changelist #####", the restore operation is restricted to the files that were submitted in changelist #####. Those files are restored to the state they were in before you submitted that changelist, provided no changes have been made to those files since. If subsequent changes have been made to any of those files, Perforce will tell you that those files are now out of date. You will have to sync to the head revision and then resolve the differences. This way you don't inadvertently clobber any changes that you actually want to keep.
Both operations work by essentially submitting old revisions as new revisions. When you perform a "Rollback...", you are restoring the files to the state they were in at a specific point in time, regardless of what has happened to them since. When you perform a "Back out...", you are attempting to undo the changes you made at a specific point in time, while maintaining the changes that have occurred since.

Are you in Linux/Unix? If so, in your home directory is a
.p4qt/directory. If Windows, I'm sure you have something similar.You should have a file called
appsettings.xmlorApplicationSettings.xml. It should have something like this:Please note, I do not know XML, but you should be able to clear this out of your file. Or, you can delete this file and have it be recreated if you don't mind some preferences being reset.
