Parameters

/unreserved: Permanently deletes the specified file. If you do not specify this keyword, the command

moves the file to the recycle bin.

file-url: Specifies the name of the file to be deleted. Asterisks (*) are acceptable as wildcards. For

example, to remove files with the .txt extension in the current directory, enter delete *.txt.

Usage guidelines

Use the delete /unreserved file-url command with caution. You cannot restore a file deleted with this

command.

The delete file-url command (without the /unreserved option) moves the specified file to the recycle bin

unless the device is running out of storage space. If the device is running out of storage space, the

command permanently deletes the file.

A file moved to the recycle bin can be restored by using the undelete command.

Do not use the delete command to delete files from the recycle bin. To delete files from the recycle bin, use

the reset recycle-bin command.

If you successively delete two files that have the same name from the same directory, the file deleted later

overwrites the file moved earlier to the recycle bin. If you delete two files that have the same name but

reside in different directories, both files are retained in the recycle bin.
