Decide whether to tidy or restart
A title can remain useful in the catalogue even when it is no longer wanted in a prominent row. Removing it from Continue Watching changes that row. It should not be interpreted as deleting the programme from the service or erasing every record associated with watching it.
For a simple example, a viewer tries a drama and decides not to continue. Removing its tile clears the reminder. If the viewer later returns to the work, the publisher’s statement says progress was not deleted merely by that earlier removal.
Use the control for the current screen
Disney’s announcement describes different controls on television, mobile and web, including removal from the row or a title details page. Follow the current official help for the actual device. Do not expect an old browser screenshot to match every remote-controlled interface.
Confirm the title and active profile before selecting Remove. A household member may have been using another profile, which changes whose row is being edited. Avoid deleting the profile as a substitute for tidying one unwanted item.
Check whether the item is a live event
The announcement distinguishes live events from ordinary removable titles and says live events disappear after they conclude. If the missing removal option concerns a live event, identify that context before diagnosing the application.
A replay offered later can be another item with its own availability. Do not assume that a live tile remaining during the event proves that removal is broken for the whole library. Keep the event name and current viewing state in the report.
Describe the remaining problem accurately
If the row is tidy but playback still resumes mid-episode, the retained progress is consistent with the publisher’s description. Use the actual player’s supported restart or navigation route for a rewatch rather than repeatedly removing the same tile.
For an unexplained result, record the title, profile, device and whether the issue is row visibility or playback position. These are separate questions. This article does not access any private Disney+account or claim that a removal action changes territorial title rights.

Disney’s announcement says it does not.
