Hello,

only the page Surf model object is saved / deleted in ../pages/user/. You also have to consider the component binding model objects in ../components/. These are unfortunately not separated by users / page. You need to delete all the files that relate to the users dashboard - you can identify them by a fragment in their name, as this follows a pattern. All files that match

^(.*\.)+user~USERNAME~dashboard.*\.xml$‍

should also be deleted.

Regards
