Desktop Manager
Deleting a Document or Folder
You can delete a document or user-defined folder when it is no longer
needed.
When deleting a document, you can delete the document permanently,
which removes the document from the Desktop Manager immediately. You
can also move it to the Trash folder. When moved, the document is stored
in the Trash folder until you later decide you want to delete it permanently,
or empty the Trash folder.
When deleting a folder, you must first delete all documents from the folder.
You can delete only user-defined folders.
To delete a document permanently:
Open the folder with the document you want to delete and click the
document. Then, on the Edit menu, click Delete.
For instructions on moving a document to the Trash folder, refer to the
“Moving a Document” section in this chapter.
To delete a folder:
1. Delete all documents from the folder you want to delete.
2. After you have deleted all the documents in the folder, click the folder.
Then, on the Edit menu, click Delete.
Emptying the Trash Folder
If you moved documents to the Trash folder, the documents remain in the
folder until you move them again to a user-defined folder, delete them
individually, or empty the Trash folder.
As you move more documents to the Trash folder, more space is used on
your hard disk for storing the documents. To prevent out-of-date
documents from unnecessarily using space on your disk, you should
periodically review your Trash folder and remove the documents no longer
needed.
