# Deleting Directories Of Files From netrw
In `netrw`, you can delete files and directories by navigating over the
target of deletion and hitting `D`.
By default, `netrw` will use `rmdir` when deleting directories. This means
that if a directory has files in it, then it won't be deleted. `rmdir`
rightly gives an error when the target directory isn't empty.
`netrw` can be configured to use `rm -r` instead of `rmdir` when deleting
directories.
```
:let g:netrw_localrmdir='rm -r'
```
