Thread: Deleting System Files

how can permanently delete files show in file system icon ? these files user no longer has access computer files still visible other users via home folder ?

if mean user account still there, not used anymore, remove user account , associated files (after backing them up, if necessary):

code:

sudo deluser --remove-all-files username

that delete user username , his/her files.

if mean have removed user account, users home directory still there, delete (note: potentially harmful command follows, make sure understand , don't typos in path):

code:

sudo rm -rf /home/username

that delete entire home directory of user username.
