Where is DELETE in WindowsExplorer? I can't find anything there to show the
"delete" button. I do a lot of file deleting so how do I find the button?

No "delete" button anymore.

It's under "File", or under "Organize", or just right-click the file
you want to delete and select "delete" from the context menu.

You have tried right-clicking on the file (or files) and choosing "delete"?

You have at least these choices:

1. Click File | Delete, on the menu bar.

2. Right-click the file and choose Delete.

3. Click the file to select it, then press the delete key on the
keyboard.

4. Drag the file to the Recycle Bin.

Vista isn't ****ed up. You are too stupid to figure out how to use it.
Speak with Ringmaster our resident mental case and you and him can get
together and figure out Vista together.

Just FYI

Yes, but then get the window asking if I'm sure I want to delete the file.
Why remove something as handy as the delete button on top of the page? Is
there any way to get rid of that annoying window asking if I'm SURE I want
the file deleted?
