How to delete top level folder?

Top level folder. Click on ... the choices are: 

Show deleted files

request files

Rewind this folder

Request automation

 

Right click on the folder - standard browser menu like "open link in new tab"... no delete option

 

How to delete it?  Thanks

  • Hi pmkdatabase, thanks for messaging the Community!

     

    It sounds like you're inside the folder you're trying to delete.

     

    Have you tried selecting the folder from the root level, by ticking the checkbox next to it, and then getting the option to delete the folder from the ellipsis menu?

     

    Keep me updated with any progress!
