I downloaded the Ubuntu Linux Live CD ISO. The file size is almost 700MB. It was saved in my desktop. So I rightclicked on it, and clicked delete. Then went to the Recycle bin, right clicked on the ISO of Ubuntu (700MB) and clicked delete. But did this REALLY delete it from my computer? Because I don't want to use up the Diskspace of 700. If not, what other way can you delete this file? Thanks.

holding shift while pressing the delete button deletes it without the recycle bin.. if it is removed from the recycle bin it wont take up your disk space, to remove a file in cmd or command type del C:/*the path of the file*/*first 6 characters of file*~1.jpg

You should get that an example is del C:/Progra~1/pictur~1.jpg

to delete picture of me.jpg in program files, if something like Progra~1 could be 2 things, try using ~2 ~3 and so on.

Programs like Frostwire/Limewire will delete files that are any size, any length, it helps a lot.

Once you have deleted it from the recycle bin the space the file occupied is marked as free space on your hard drive and will be able to be used

you deleted the icon from the desktop.

If this is a program go to Control Panel, select Add and Remove programs, select the program from the list of programs and follow the prompts.
