How do you remove a tool when you press a TextButton?
So my problem is that I have a GUI. When I press the Text button, the GUI won't remove the tool from the backpack of the player. This script is in a Local Script.
function Remove()
player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
tools = player.Backpack:getChildren()
function onClicked()
for i = 1, #tools do
if tools[i]:isA("tool") then
tools[i]:remove()
end
end
script.Parent.Mouse1ButtonDown:connect(Remove)

Well, first things first you should never put nomal text in a script, it will break it. Put a -- in front of it on line 1. Second, you don't need a function for your variables. You just have to state them above the function. Third, you're trying to call remove but you should be connecting onclicked. Try this

player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
tools = player.Backpack:getChildren() --Moved variables outside function
function Remove()
for i = 1, #tools do
if tools[i]:IsA("tool") then
tools[i]:Destroy() --Destroy is better than remove
end
end
script.Parent.Mouse1ButtonDown:connect(Remove)

First, like Yoshi said, :Destroy() is a better method than :remove()
Second, capitalize "Tool"
Third, in your connecting line, it is supposed to be MouseButton1Down, not Mouse1ButtonDown

I believe the issue is that you've put:
if tools[i]:IsA("tool") then
Tool needs to be capitalised:
if tools[i]:IsA("Tool") then
