How to delete files in Win10

In the old days Puppy could generally remove any Windows files without drama.

These days I'm having trouble fixing some Win 10 laptops because I can't seem to
remove attributes with Puppy.

5 ways to delete files (temporarily or permanently) in Windows 10

Permanently delete files using PowerShell or Command Prompt
Windows 10 has a command that you can use to permanently delete files, and it can be used both in PowerShell and Command Prompt. Depending on what you prefer, start the Command Prompt or open PowerShell. Then, enter the command: del "path to file".

For example, to delete the sample.jpg file found on the D: drive, in the Digital Citizen folder,
we typed: del "D:\Digital Citizen\sample.jpg".

Now I have just seen this...Wise Force Deleter..for Windows and that it has a free trial.
So I will give it a try.

As much as people try to help my number 1 plan is when I have a reply or request
is supply an explanation, and then supply a workable link that tells me in a basic way
how it works.

I did state simple??? in my post..
And I have erred in the past not reading the question correctly.
Then you have to think in the future of people who might want the same answer,
and are put off by vague answers.

Wise Force Deleter is now in the DELETE folder...another Non Event.
