Deleting Files and Directories
Press the Delete soft button (from Disk mode) to delete files and directories. The Delete function
supports multiple selection of files for deletion. Select one or more files and/or directories to be
deleted, and press OK (or Cancel to abort). Be careful! You don’t get a second chance to change
your mind once you’ve pressed OK. Once a file is deleted, it’s gone. Remember the fundamental
directive of computer users: Save early, save often; make backups.

When you press Delete, the File List dialog appears, and you can navigate through the
directories to choose the file or directory you want to delete.
Within the current directory, you can select multiple files for deletion. You can’t, however, delete
files from more than one directory at a time. If you move to a different directory in the middle of
a deletion, any files you had selected up to that point get deselected.
You cannot delete directory if it has any files in it. To delete a directory, you must first delete its
contents. Also, you can’t use the Select soft button to select a directory for deletion. To delete a
directory (once it’s empty, of course), highlight the directory and press OK. If the Confirm
parameter on the Master-mode page is set to On, the K2661 will ask you if you’re sure. Press Yes
and the K2661 begins deleting the selected objects. If one of the selected objects is a directory
that contains files, the K2661 will tell you that it can’t delete the directory.
When selecting files and directories for deletion, you can use the Open soft button to open
directories and files. Opening a directory at this point is useful for selecting files within the
directory. Opening a file is less useful, since you can’t delete individual objects from files. You
can view the file’s contents, but you can’t select any of them for deletion.

To access the Backup function from the Disk-mode page, first make sure that the current disk is
