I think I figured it out, I’m deleting the object through a local script.
Could that be the problem?

And on what side is that module script running? Get by RunService:IsServer(), if it returns true, then it is On server, then yeah that’s the problem, if not then problem is something else.

I think I know why, your adding “NewItemHolder” on a local script I believe and the server cannot see it.

I realized the problem, I delete the gui in the local script, and I need to delete the script in the server script after clicking the button.
How do I do it?

Use remote event, on local script fire it and on server script, listen to it, check who fired it and then delete that gui from players GUI folder.

Place in StarterGUI:

script.Parent.ChildRemoved(function(child)
	if child.Name == "SCREENGUI_NAME_HERE" then
		-- code here
	end
end)

Explanation:
Script’s ChildRemoved event fires when a child of StarterGui is removed, or in your case, turns into “nil”.
