<\/span>Know the location of the files you want to delete<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n
The first step you have to do is find out first where\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>the file<\/span><\/span><\/em> \u00a0you want to delete is located.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
In general,\u00a0 your <\/span><\/span>files<\/span><\/span><\/em> \u00a0will be stored in one type of storage, namely the Macbook’s internal storage or external storage.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
Internal storage, as the name suggests, is the default storage on your Macbook.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
Meanwhile, external storage is storage media that you connect to your Macbook, for example\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>a flash disk<\/span><\/span><\/em> ,\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>SSD<\/span><\/span> , hard disk, or other external storage media.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
To access one of these storage media, please open Finder. <\/span>Then click the name of your Macbook in the finder sidebar on the left.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The name of your Macbook will of course be different from the name of my Macbook. <\/span>The name of my Macbook is “Androbuntu”, please click on the name of your Macbook.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
Then Finder will display all the storage connected to your Macbook.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"How<\/figure>\n
If you don’t connect external storage media, then in Finder what appears is only storage called\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>Macintosh HD<\/span><\/span><\/strong> .<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
And if you connect storage media, its name will appear in Finder.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
Please select one of the storage media where you save\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>the files<\/span><\/span><\/em> \u00a0you want to delete.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"How<\/figure>\n
Or to make it faster, you can also use the\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>command + delete<\/span><\/span><\/strong> buttons .<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
Now\u00a0 the <\/span><\/span>file<\/span><\/span><\/em> \u00a0has been thrown away and is in the Trash. <\/span>However,\u00a0 the <\/span><\/span>file<\/span><\/span><\/em> \u00a0has not been completely deleted.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
If you want to delete it permanently from your Macbook, open\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>the Trash<\/span><\/span><\/strong> .<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
\"How<\/figure>\n
Now you can see that\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>the file<\/span><\/span><\/em> \u00a0you just deleted will be found in the Trash.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
The Trash will be the last place where all\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>the files<\/span><\/span><\/em> \u00a0you delete will be collected and will be permanently deleted after 30 days.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
