Delete files in OneDrive

Delete files in OneDrive

- [Instructor] When a file or files are no longer needed, they can be deleted from the document library. With the library in view, locate a file that you want to delete, right click over it, and from the menu, select Delete. Select Delete once more to confirm that you want to delete this file, and the file has been removed from the document library. It's been deleted and it has been placed in the Recycle Bin, just as you see here in the notification. Now, let's close that notification. If you want to delete more than one file, go ahead and select the circle here to the left of the file name. Let's select these two. And then the top here, this ribbon area here, we're going to select Delete, and then Delete once more to confirm, and here's the notification that both files have been deleted. Let's close that notification. Now, the files have been deleted, and they are available in the Recycle Bin if they need to be restored. That's how you can delete files within OneDrive.
