SharePoint How to Remove a workflows from lists

A workflow that is created with Office SharePoint Designer 2007 is always attached to a list or library. Through the browser, you can remove a workflow from a list or library so that the workflow is no longer available to users.

Removing a workflow from a list or library does not delete the actual source files used to compile the workflow. Rather, the workflow is no longer attached to the list or library, but the source files remain stored in the Workflows document library of the site. To delete the workflow, see the next section.

1.In a Web browser, browse to the site that contains the workflow that you want to delete, and then browse to the specific list or library to which the workflow is attached.

2.On the list or library menu bar, click Settings, and then click either List Settings or Document Library Settings, whichever is present.

You can add a workflow only to the list or library to which it was originally attached.
