Sure delete the file. There is nothing in your posting that indicates any errors that you are getting, what you have done or what is happening within your code.

He will follow with a question titled "How to turn off Caps-Lock?" :P

And then a question about why spamming forums is bad.

DON'T SHOUT. Using all capitals is considered shouting on the internet, and rude (using all lower case is considered childish). Use proper capitalisation if you want to be taken seriously.

This whole request makes no sense because, from the standpoint of the run time of the application you develop, there is no such thing as "project folder". This folder is for source code only. Adding, deleting file, etc., could be a matter of software development, but never a matter of the behavior of your program. If, by some weird reason, the question was not about your code, it would simply be off-topic.

Please explain more. Also provide code you are using to delete the file.

Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov 15-Oct-12 2:48am

Just read it again. The code? System.IO.File.Delete. But it makes no sense, as I explained. Did not get it and need more? Explain what you did not get more.

Please share the path of the file you are deleting.

Who are you talking to? To OP? What this path can tell you? The whole idea is wrong; or there is something else, not explained by OP.
