Working with files and folders Deleting files and folders When you throw away paper files and folders, you take them from the file cabinet and put them in a trash can. Eventually the trash can is emptied. In Windows, you throw away files and folders by first moving them to the Windows trash can, called the Recycle Bin, where they remain until you decide to empty the bin. You can recover any file in the Recycle Bin as long as the bin has not been emptied. To delete files or folders: 1 In My Computer or Windows Explorer, click the files or folders that you want to delete. For instructions on how to select multiple files and folders, see "Shortcuts" on page 53. If you cannot find the file you want to delete, see "Searching for files" on page 46. 2 Click File, then click Delete. Windows moves the files and folders to the Recycle Bin. Help and Support For more information about deleting files and folders, click Start, then click Help and Support. Type the keyword deleting files and folders in the Search box , then click the arrow.
