 * Hi,
 * Using your WP-Optimize plugin, the speed of my website has increased tremendously.
   Approaching an AIOSEO site analysis score of 100… almost there.
 * One of the settings I am using, is to set CSS files to load asynchronously. Both
   in the Minify – CSS menu and using the Minify – Advanced menu.
 * In the Advanced menu, I want to remove files I have set to load asynchronously
   from this setting, to allow them to load synchronous again.
   How do I do that?
   CSS files set to load asynchronously using the Advanced settings do seem to show
   up anywhere.

 * Hi, 
   Thank you for contacting us! When you select a CSS file to be loaded asynchronously
   from the Advanced tab it will add this file as a new line in the CSS tab in the
   section “Load the following CSS files asynchronously”. To revert these files 
   so they are loaded synchronously you can remove the lines needed from the CSS
   tab and save the settings. Once your Minification cache and Page cache are purged
   and regenerated those files should start loading again synchronously.
