How do I quickly delete a large file/folder?



Getting Started



You can easily delete large files or just a mass amount of files using this method. Which is quite simple!

To do this, you will want to head into the Files drop-down tab and then select the FTP File Access.



On the side-bar of the FTP File Access page, you will notice something entitled New Dir, click that. Then name the directory:
DANGER_DELETE_ALL

Please note that you must create this in the root/home directory.



Once the directory is created, you can move your files in there, using the move tool. Then select the DANGER_DELETE_ALL on the list and then set all target directories and then click submit.




After you follow these steps, you must restart your server for these files to be removed.
