If you disable the Enable support for Workbench edit, delete, rename and refactoring operations preference, you must manually open the files for delete if you intend to remove them from the depot

To delete files that are under P4 control, you open the files for delete, then submit the changelist in which they are open. P4 adds a file revision marked "deleted" to the depot (but retains all previous revisions), and deletes the files from your workspace.
