Red labeled file names in project navigation area Permanently deleted user Created March 04, 2013 22:29 How do I get rid of it? Its not that way for PyCharm.
Most likely it's a VCS file status: http://www.jetbrains.com/phpstorm/webhelp/file-status-highlights.html
Checked VCS in preferences and it seems like that was the case!
Thankyou!
