How to delete files bypassing trash

When I select the file and push delete this file is automatically landing in the trash. How can I delete files bypassing trash without using a mouse?


Solution 1:

Select the files and leave SHIFT pressed while pressing the DELETE button or option.

Example: Select with CTRL several files while clicking on them.

Leave SHIFT pressed while pressing the DELETE button will delete them permanently.

To select multiple files. Click the first file and then leave SHIFT pressed while selecting the last file you want to select. It is the same thing as dragging the mouse while pressing the left mouse button.

Solution 2:

In Nautilus -> Preferences select the following

alt text

to have the option to delete files rather than putting to trash in the right-click context menu.
