  1. Choose this option ("Delete the preview user and all data") if you have used Student Preview merely to see what your course looks like to a student, and you did not take any action (like take a test, submit an assignment, participate in a discussion forum, or something elsethe like).
  2. Use this option ("Keep the preview user and all data") if you have used Student Preview to take a test, submit an assignment, participate in a discussion forum, or taken some other action, which you would then like to see from your instructor view.
