I see that you are right. I could not generate new results without resolving everything, and that caused the work folder to blow up to the original size. Thanks for the enlightenment!
Thanks for answering!
Clearing the data from the Mechanical ("Edit") interface consistently works well across all my simulations.
Clearing the data from the Workbench interface consistently does not do anything at all, as it seems.
I tested your idea on a current simulation whose work...
Also: "reset" doesn't do anything.
Also: attempting to clear the data from Workbench takes a minute - whereas the same operations in the Edit (or "Mechanical") window takes less than a second. Aside from the fact that the latter works whereas the former doesn't - what's up with that?
Also...

I'm a mech eng consultant, and most of my gigs throw me into new industries using new software all the time. Recently I have had the dubious pleasure of getting deep into ANSYS again. Last time was in 2005, and back then we dumped...
