Deleting files

Deleting files

 

Windows Vista

 

  Delete Files    Undelete Files 

     

Deleting files is even easier than copying and moving them.  In Windows, deleted files are first placed into a sort of limbo... the Recycle Bin.  Deleted files can be restored from the Recycle into their original locations.

To delete an unwanted file or folder

  1. Right click the folder or file you wish to delete and click Delete

Click Image for example:  DeletingFiles_1.jpg (20738 bytes)

Note:  You can also press the Delete (or Del) key once the file is selected. 

  1. Click Yes to the popup question.

Click Image for example:  DeletingFiles_2.jpg (16816 bytes)

 

 

And un-deleting them...

To undelete files, is a lifesaver when you find you've been too quick with the Delete key. On these occasions, all you need to do is:

  1. Double Click the Recycle Bin icon on your desktop, or right click the icon and click Open

  1. Highlight the file to restore and click Restore this item in the top menu or right click and click Restore

Click Image for example:  DeletingFiles_4.jpg (52891 bytes)

 

Note: If you don't want to place the file in its old location, instead of right-clicking it you can left click and drag it onto the Desktop or into an open folder window.

 

Remember, the earlier you act, the more chance the file will still be in the Recycle Bin.
