Hello,
I am creating my own model template and while trying to create the model and the corresponding drawing I accidentally created too many views, this loads the process of view inserting.
Is there a way to delete these views?

Thanks,
Mor

rmc (right mouse click) on each view on the drawing -> delete
or select the views in your Part Navigator Tree (expand your sheet) and delete them from there
 
You have the "Add dimetric Views" option ON in your customer default, NX then creates 16 Extra views in your parts.
As long as this option is ON, i assume from your picture that NX considers these "Canned views".

Canned Views are the NX default views, cannot be changed nor deleted.

Regards,
Tomas
 
oh, I see, I assumed you were speaking of the drawing.
 
Thnaks,

I checked and the "add dimetric views" in OFF.
Perhaps while creating the template file, it was ON.

Is there a way back? meaning removing/hiding them? or do I need to create the template file from scratch?

No, these are considered standard views, just like the default Top, Front, Left, Right... views and therefore can't not be edited or removed. That's why they are under the control of Customer Defaults so that only the people who really want them will have them enabled.
