File delete option from the files tab

[Charlie H.]

When using the Files tab to view fragmented files I often see a fragmented file that I know can be deleted. It would be nice to have a right click option to delete the file. I understand that this could be risky for people who think they don't need a file but it may be a required file, so it would need to be implimented carefully, maybe with an Advanced option that enables the delete option.

Hi Charlie, and welcome to Piriform.

 

I know what you mean, and after analysing, I often see files which I'd prefer to delete, and I do this by right clicking the item and selecting "Open containing folder", where I can delete the file directly.

 

Seeing a file in it's actual location might make some folk think twice, and check a file out before consigning it to the big recycle bin in the sky.

 

But I do see the reasoning behind your suggestion.
