You can always as the moderator to remove content, but be aware that this is sort of an Orwellian action (manipulation of the past) and might make other responses no longer match the discussion. Preferably, posts should remain so others can also learn from similar mistakes. (exceptions are e.g. spam and exposure of privileged information)
To contact the moderator, look in the upper right for an "options" dropdown of each post.

Agreed, initially I should have started with something a little more basic. Unfortunately, I think I thought I could handle it because I can implement FFTs in seconds in other languages. If I upgrade to 2020, will this VI still work?

First question, yes, it should absolutely work in LabVIEW 2020 (and in LabVIEW 2021, which should be released within a month or so). Things which use standard LabVIEW functions will almost certainly be "forward-compatible" for several years (NXG not-withstanding).
As to editing Posts, my impression (based on lots of posts, but only drawing inferences) is that you can't edit once anyone has posted after you. I know I "not infrequently" post something, then say "Oops, I forgot the attachment", and sometimes can "Edit/Recover", but if lunch intervenes, I might log on and see "Hey, Dummy, where's the Attachment you promised?".
