How to delete files

Recommended Posts

I've tried File Manager and File Browser that came pre-loaded and I don't see delete as a function anywhere, not even in contextual menu. I installed that ES file explorer and tried that, same thing, nothing about deleting anywhere. How can I do this? :cry:

Thanks.

@vinceL Download ESFile explorer from Google Play store, its the best file manager for me. You can also use the File Manager on the box itself but its limited in terms of functionality.

Ok but in my original note, I mentioned that I tried those file managers already and I couldn't see the delete function anywhere. Is there some setting somewhere that will allow me to delete files/folders? I'm not allowed to delete for some reason.

You just highlight the file or folder and push the enter button on your remote (or the button that you usually press for enter) and confirm the deletion.

Yes as Dlangejc says, you just highlight the file you want to delete. Hold down the ok button, and a pop up menu will appear giving you the option to delete.

If you are using the home screen that came pre installed on your 520E, then there is no way to delete this icon

As the app icon is apart of the design of this Home Screen.
