# Deleting files

To delete one or multiple files follow these steps:

1. <div>Select one file, or multiple files by holding the CTRL key pressed.</div>
2. <div>Click the “Delete” option from the contextual menu.</div>
3. <div>The deleted file(s) will disappear from the list.</div>

<span style="color: #ffcc00;">Deleted files can be restored from the "Trash" special folder. If you have checked the "Permanent deletion" option the files have been destroyed and cannot be recovered.</span>

## Alternatively

Select "Confirm" after "Delete" to avoid getting the prompt for deletion and deleting the files directly.
