Re: Deleted files

No,

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/shellapi/nf-shellapi-shfileoperationa using FOF_ALLOWUNDO.

When used to delete a file, SHFileOperation permanently deletes the file unless you set the FOF_ALLOWUNDO flag in the fFlags member of the SHFILEOPSTRUCT structure pointed to by lpFileOp. Setting that flag sends the file to the Recycle Bin. If you want to simply delete a file and guarantee that it is not placed in the Recycle Bin, use DeleteFile.

Hi,

When writing code Delete is Delete. There's also an option to move to the recycle bin. As you say, these files may be too big.

I think this may be down to Windows limitations rather than Console. I usually get a message that the files are too big to recycle, and did I want to permanently delete them?
