Windows 10: Backspace = delete file/folder. but it dosnt do that.

Hi, ive been using windows for like 4 years now and somethings that just makes me angry in windows file explorer is when i press the backspace key, i dont delete a file/folder i navigate back. im currently using a 60% layout keyboard. it takes to long for me to click "delete" at the top of the explorer. is there anyway i can fix this?

Trouble deleting a folder

Thanks for the suggestion but it says "delete folder failed for E:\....." for each folder I try.

*Confused

Will I be forever stuck with these unnecessary folders? *Oh Well hwell:

 

How do I make my backspace key delete folders in file explorer?

My entire life, I have used backspace to delete pictures, folders, and other files from my desktop and while in file explorer. Suddenly, backspace now functions as a navigation arrow, and instead of deleting, I am going into the containing folder for the files I am attempting to delete. How do I fix the backspace key?

 

Backspace navigates instead of deleting files

I am getting very frustrated by this, but I can't find any settings that seem to be responsible.

When I am looking in a folder and try to delete a file, I select the file and press "backspace" but instead of deleting the file I navigate to the folder above the one I'm in.

How do I change it so that backspace actually deletes the file, like how it works on every windows computer I've used for the last twenty years?
