If (Directory. Exists (deleteDirectory ))

Foreach (string deleteFile in Directory. GetFileSystemEntries (deleteDirectory ))

{

If (File. Exists (deleteFile ))

File. Delete (deleteFile );

Else

DeleteFolder (deleteFile );

}

Directory. Delete (deleteDirectory );

}

}

Recursively delete the files in the folder and then delete the empty folder.
