I assume the back is pinned to the shelf you are removing, so you'll ruin the back and leave it unsupported. I strongly suggest you work round the issue and leave the shelf where it is.

Totally convincing! I'll make my missus some stilts instead.
Get her one of these?

It all seemed so simple just a little while ago.
Or take the wardrobe out of the alcove, dismantle it very, very carefully, and reassemble it the way you want it.
Can't you just allocate your wife a different shelf?
"Built to withstand heavy use"? Dare I?
By Golly! I think you might be onto something there.
Do you?
I've always put the cam in the hole first, aligned it, then pushed the pinned bit in from the side!

Ooops! :)
Maybe a photo of the whole wardrobe, if you want practical suggestions?
We've all said that.
Usually just after last orders at Screwfix, with no electricity, and wondering why we forgot to buy meter tail or torch battery.

Only if you want your marriage to turn into as big a minefield as your wardrobe.
Maybe just move.

Lots of fitted wardrobes for the XYL and a garage/playroom for you.

Only if you get it unscrewed are you screwed. If you buy Ikea... this is what you get.

The idea was to take out the shelf with the box file on, and put the box file on the next lower shelf. Access and opening space. Don't think it's happening
Now we know where, it's just a matter of the wherewithall.

ROFL! The story of my DIY life.
I got a warning from Kaspersky about that photo. It said the web page was downloading adverts and recommended closing it.
Isn't this what multi-tools are for ?.
Cut the camlocks and reposition with new ones.
Failing that, use no-nails :-)
No, the shelf is, rather securely :-)
