Send a File to the Recycle Bin

Question

file.Delete();

But how can I use this function to send a file to the recycle bin instead of jus

Answer 1

There is built-in library for this .

First add reference Microsoft.VisualBasic Then add this code :

FileSystem.DeleteFile(path_of_the_file,
                        Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.UIOption.AllDialogs,
                        Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.RecycleOption.SendToRecycleBin,
                        Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.UICancelOption.ThrowException);

I have found this here .
