I assume that your question is related to your post here.
You are not able or let's say authorised to delete a post; this would require a moderator to do it on your behalf. However, you're able to edit your post and to remove the whole content from your post unless the thread is locked/closed. In my post here, I pointed to the respective "Edit" button but it also shows the "Report" button to alert the moderators team.
However, due to the spirit of XDA to share knowledge and experiences including solution to a problem or issue, I believe it's much better and appropriate to leave your post as it is but to share in it (a via a new post) how you solved your problem.

Accept my apologies, I've posted the first one on PC and couldn't see it first, and after that posted one more time. Then I saw both, but couldn't delete the first one.

No problem. And affirmative, users cannot delete, close or move a thread but edit a post, a thread title and thread tags. If you ever require some kind of thread maintenance in future again, simply hit the Report button to alert the moderators team and we'll be happy to support.
Have a nice weekend.

[CLOSED]Remove paswords of apps by rooting

I have a big problem. I put a password in an application, which I unfortunately forgot, and the information in that application is very important to me.
I heard that by accessing the root of the phone and a specific file, that password can be deleted. Do you have information about this. Please help me.

What does "reserved" mean

I keep seeing it on every rom thread but yet to find out what it means.

The Original Poster (also abbreviated as OP) of a ROM thread very often additionally creates posts no. 2 and/or no. 3 immediately after he created his ROM thread i.e. after the creation of the thread's first post (that is also known as the Opening Post, which is also abbreviated as OP).
If the OP hasn't yet a content for the posts #2 or #3, then he enters "reserved" meaning these posts are reserved for his future use that e.g. could be to add changelogs in post #2 if new versions of a ROM are released.
I hope I was able to sufficiently answer you're question.
By the way, a remark: We only allow developers to reserve posts in their own development thread, and nobody else. This means if you pass by "reserved posts" that don't comply with this condition, please report such a post via the report function. Thanks for your cooperation.

As far as I know, you can only edit a thread, not delete it. You could try reporting your thread's original post and ask if they can delete the thread.

@coockedcow Welcome to XDA! I hope you'll always get the support you require.
A user is not able to delete a thread or a post; you can only edit your posts. Likewise you are not able to close/lock a thread, this also requires a moderator. If you like one of your posts deleted or one of your threads close, please notify the moderators team via the report function. I've by the way moved this thread from forum "Samsung Galaxy A51 Guides, News, & Discussion" as your thread was not related to that device.
Please be also aware that we generally don't delete threads but only close them in order to avoid HTTP 404 errors after search engines have indexed XDA. Such errors provide a poor user experience that we want to avoid. The only exceptions to this rule are spams and duplicate threads; however, latter ones only immediately after they were created.
