Key Points

• On your keyboard, hold down the Shift key while pressing the Delete key. You will be prompted to confirm that you wish to remove the file or folder because you cannot undo this.
• Send files to the Recycle Bin on Windows, then empty the Recycle Bin to permanently erase the files. Without data or file recovery software, you cannot recover the files when the recycle bin is empty.
• Because Windows 11 is being used to display this screenshot, you must additionally click Show more options after right-clicking the file.

F2:-When an icon, file, or folder is highlighted or selected in Microsoft Windows and Windows programs, pressing F2 renames the file.

Backspace:-A keyboard key called Backspace or Backspace deletes any character that comes before the cursor's current position.
