Attempt to index function with 'Clone' error

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

My goal is to make a file system where the user could create files/documents.
It was all going fine until I ran into an error.

Here’s the error:

attempt to index function with ‘Clone’

I tried looking on google, looked all over the developer forum.

Here is the code:

	local NewFile = Instance.new("ImageButton",script.Parent.Parent.Main.DesktopIcons)
	NewFile.Image = icon
	NewFile.Position = spot
	NewFile.Size = UDim2.new(0,50,0,50)
	NewFile.BackgroundTransparency = 1
	NewFile.Name = "File"
	local clone = game.ReplicatedStorage.Remove:Clone() --error line, Remove = script
	clone.Parent = NewFile
	clone.Disabled = false

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

print remove’s class name because if it’s a function then you cant clone it

screen shot me your game explorer with the replicated storage stuff

Members have precedence over children so when you are doing

you are actually referring to the deprecated Instance:Remove method. So just change the name of the thing you wanna clone to something like Delete or similar.
