After I've burnt a CD, I want to delete (not 'move to trash') the files.

How can I do that?

Thanks,
BS

Hi BackSeat,

You can use the shortcut on the keyboard :
shift + Del
It will delete without passing threw the trash ( you will be prompted with a dialog to confirm ).

Thanks for the quick and helpful answer.

Out of interest, I'm sure k3b used to have a right-click option to delete rather than move to trash - but thanks for your help.

Oh, sorry if this topic is related to a feature of k3b , I just jumped on the question after clicked on ' View unanswered posts' (1) and then in the title I couldn't read if the topic was in a sub forum categorie (2) , and I still can't do it. Screenshot :



I checked other topic , and yep , the forum doesn't display this information ( location of the topic ) , and this is confusing. I will report it to moderators.
( the tips I gave work in Dolphin , I thought it was a general question on the filemanager )

I believe K3b likely follows the Dolphin/Konqueror preference here. It can only be set through Konqueror however. Open Konqueror > Settings > Configure Konqueror. Select "File Management". Make sure "Show delete menu entries which bypass the trashcan" is checked.

Thanks, that worked. I had to install Konqueror to do it (I don't use KDE), but I now have a 'delete' item on the right-click popup.

Thank you.

Marked as accepted.

Can we enable this option "Show delete menu entries which bypass the trashcan" via configuration files, so that it is applied automatically when users logged-in?
