Right-click on the tag to delete it.

Thanks. I should have clarified that I"m Mac guy. So when I double click it, I can change the name, but not delete it. So any thought on how to delete with Mac version?

Control-Click on the tag name if you don't have a 2 button mouse.

I did the "Control-click" on the tag and it did give me a drop-down menu with the "Delete Tag" option, but it did not delete the tag when I chose it. Hmm?

For clarification the I'm trying to delete it from the "Tags" column on the left side of my Evernote Window.

That's very odd. I just deleted a bunch of tags on Sunday. Worked fine. Sorry, not brilliant suggestions.

When you tried to do the Command-Click to Delete Tags, what did happen? Did you see anything, or did it just return without showing any messages at all?

There may be more information under: Help > Activity Log...

I'm using EN for Windows, so you'll need to translate this to Mac, but I have found that the tag needs to be highlighted first (with a left-click), then a right-click and Delete will work. If another or no tag is highlighted, right-clicking and selecting Delete has no effect - for me at least.
