How do I just simply delete a shared file
Just want to delete a file (it was a video) shared with me. No "delete this file" anywhere to be seen. "Shared" is only ask the person that shared this you'd like to share with someone else, or download or save or keep or archive or. or .... just want to delete it. Simply. Not have to spent hours searching or posting or creating a thread. Just want to delete a file. Or read suggestions that aren't pertinent.
