Delete a File

To delete a file in Java, use the delete() method:

Example

import java.io.File;  // Import the File class

            public class DeleteFile {
              public static void main(String[] args) { 
                File myObj = new File("filename.txt"); 
                if (myObj.delete()) { 
                  System.out.println("Deleted the file: " + myObj.getName());
                } else {
                  System.out.println("Failed to delete the file.");
                } 
              } 
            }

The output will be:

Deleted the file: filename.txt

Delete a Folder

You can also delete a folder. However, it should be empty:

Example

import java.io.File; 

            public class DeleteFolder {
              public static void main(String[] args) { 
                File myObj = new File("C:\\Users\\MyName\\Test"); 
                if (myObj.delete()) { 
                  System.out.println("Deleted the folder: " + myObj.getName());
                } else {
                  System.out.println("Failed to delete the folder.");
                } 
              } 
            }

The output will be:

Deleted the folder: Test
