In linux, how does one delete folders? For more information, see this article. This article introduces the Linux folder deletion command.
Deleting a directory in linux is very simple. many people are still used to using rmdir. However, once the directory is not empty, it is deeply worried. now we can use the rm-rf command.
You can simply use rm, but you need to add two parameters-rf: rm-rf directory name
-R is recursive down. no matter how many levels of directories are there, delete them together.
-F means to delete the file directly without any prompts.
Method:
1. delete a folder instance:
Rm-rf/var/log/httpd/access
The/var/log/httpd/access directory and all files and folders under it will be deleted.
2. delete a file instance:
Rm-f/var/log/httpd/access. log
The file/var/log/httpd/access. log will be forcibly deleted.
Note: Be careful when using this rm-rf. there is no Recycle bin in linux.
