How to delete internal storage file in android?
I have used the Android internal storage to save a file for my application (using openFileOutput
) but I would like to delete that file, is it possible and how?
File dir = getFilesDir();
File file = new File(dir, "my_filename");
boolean deleted = file.delete();
I know this is a bit of an oldie, but the docs say to use:
deleteFile("filename");
rather than:
File.delete();
Which if you are already using:
getFilesDir();
kind of makes sense.
