Playing The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion, many people wonder: how to throw out an unnecessary item from the inventory? In TES 4:Morrowind, you could just drag the item to the ground. In the latest Scrolls game, Skyrim, there is a special key for this, which could be assigned in the settings (R by default). However, neither system works in the third game of the series, so many are wondering: how do you throw things away in Oblivion?
How do I remove an item from inventory?
To do this, open your inventory and hold down the Shift key and click on the item you want to throw away. If there is more than one item, a window will appear in which you can specify how much to discard.

You can also drag the item towards your character (which is visible in open inventory mode), outside the window. However, when using the latter method, the message You have not enough room sometimes appears. It means that there is too little space in front of the character,to drop the item.
However, before throwing away an item, you should check its value: it is often much more profitable to sell an item (unless, of course, it is just another vase).
How to drop a quest item?
So, it's clear how to throw things out of the inventory in Oblivion. But one more question remains open about things in the inventory in the third part of the legendary TES series. How to throw things out of inventory in Oblivion that are left after completing a quest? Many have experienced this after finishing, for example, the last Mages Guild quest or stealing the Elders' Scroll (Thieves Guild line). The Black Soul Stone and the Heist Plan remain in the inventory for the entire subsequent game, getting in the way and getting confused. The same can be said for the Ring of the Viper and the Arrow of Liberation.
Unfortunately, the developers did not provide for such an opportunity, or rather, provided for its absence. This was done so that quest items would not be lost and not accidentally thrown away by the player. But now, if the quest item is not taken during the quest, it is impossible to get rid of it without involving the software.

However, such situations are rare (2-3 times in the whole game). In addition, there is a special plugin (Andrews No Quest Items v 1.0). Using it, you can get rid of all the quest items, and then pick up the ones you need. Another option is to remove the “quest” parameter from the item using the constructor and calmly lay it out.
