Thanks in advance.

In the Data Module pane, click the inverted ellipsis (three dots) next to the uploaded file, and select "Remove"

Cheers!

No....!

I was asking for uploaded files which are there in the source pane of the data module.
I don't see any option to remove them from source pane of the data module.

I think you know the answer to that one already. However, unless you bring it into the Data Module pane, it isn't included in the module you save and use in reports / dashboards.

Uploaded files are saved in My Content and you can delete those from there as a user. To clean up everything related to uploaded files, you may need to delete the files/folders from <installation directory>/data/datafiles as well.
