Hi ​@Maaya Check if there is an option under File operations menu to delete document file. If not you need to navigate to the Document Revision page, then go to the file refs tab and then delete the record there first and then try to delete the document revision.

      That error is valid because there is a file reference existing for the document revision. For obsolete document revisions there should be a command named “ Delete document revision” this should delete both document revision and its file reference
