Created a folder to use for a WordPress installation (WPLocal_html) then learned that it wasn't needed. (and should have been all lower case) Tried to delete it with FileManager by highlighting the folder and clicking Delete - nothing happens. No Delete option with Right Click on mouse. (or left click or double left or right click) How do you delete an empty, unused folder?

Hello,

Thank you for your question. Please see our walk-through guide on Deleting files/folders from your cPanel File Manager.

If you are not able to delete the file, check the permissions to ensure you are able to modify the file/folder.

For example, make sure the folder permissions are set to 755.

If you have any further questions, feel free to post them below.

Thank you,
John-Paul
