Hello, I doubt having a demonstration copy install is your issue here. When I first started with ProTools it was as a demo and I don't recall us ever being a problem. If you're using ProTools 11, unselect every track in the project, using voice over . Then reselect only the track that you wish to delete material from. The fact that you can delete audio using the tutorials just makes me there is just a selection problem going on here. Feel free to write me privately and perhaps I can give you a step-by-step
