    Deleting files in Windows Explorer


    I have MyLabel Designer Deluxe software on my PC which I have had for a long time,

    The software manual instructs me to go to Windows Explorer to delete unwanted files.

    I had Windows 7 but a few months ago, I upgraded to Windows 10. How would I do this deletion?

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
