There are multiple ways to remove files from your Android device:
1. Using the File Manager App
- Open the File Manager app: Most Android devices come with a built-in file manager app. You can find it in your app drawer.
- Navigate to the folder containing the files: Use the file manager's navigation to locate the folder where the files you want to delete are stored.
- Select the files: Long-press on a file to select it. You can select multiple files by tapping on other files while holding down the long-press.
- Delete the files: Tap on the "Delete" or "Trash" icon to remove the selected files.
2. Using the Downloads Folder
- Open the Downloads folder: This folder usually contains files you've downloaded from the internet. You can access it through the File Manager app or by using the "Downloads" app.
- Select the files: Long-press on the files you want to delete.
- Delete the files: Tap on the "Delete" or "Trash" icon.
3. Using Third-Party Apps
- Install a third-party file manager app: There are many file manager apps available on the Google Play Store, such as "ES File Explorer" or "Solid Explorer."
- Use the app to locate and delete files: These apps often offer more advanced features, like the ability to delete files from multiple locations at once or to move files to the trash bin for later recovery.
4. Using the "Storage" Settings
- Open the "Storage" settings: This can usually be found in the "Settings" app on your device.
- Navigate to the "Other files" section: This section may be labeled differently depending on your device, but it will list all files that aren't categorized as apps, photos, music, or videos.
- Select the files: Tap on the files you want to delete.
- Delete the files: Tap on the "Delete" or "Trash" icon.
Remember to always double-check the files you're deleting to avoid accidentally removing important data.
