Removing empty folder on home screen

[Walter Turns]

I cleaned up my home screen and now have an empty folder that I had created. I touch and hold it a cancel appears on top, but nothing happens when I bring it to it also does anyone know how to rename a folder once it is created. Thanks

What happens if you tap the folder? Does it open up? If so, check there for any editing options.

Which launcher are you using?

The Fatyank

When I open the folder I can change the color and there is a plus (+), when hit that I get a screen listing all the apps. I can select the app, even though the folder is listed it can not be selected.
I am using the stock launcher that came with the tablet touch wiz??

To be sure--this is a folder on the homescreen, and not the App Drawer, correct? And when you long-press the folder, does it say "Cancel" at the top of the screen, or "Remove" (with a garbage can icon), as shown here? How do I create or delete folders on my Samsung Galaxy NotePRO 12.2 home screen and add apps to them?

They are on the screen that lists all the apps. I created them and named them. When I touch and hold an X with cancel appears but does not remove it. Would it be easiest to use a third party launcher like nova

That sounds more like the App Drawer, not the homescreen. I think you'll find the correct answer here: Remove folder from App Drawer in TouchWiz (not home screen / app launcher) - Android Enthusiasts Stack Exchange
