He wants to know how to delete a folder with content...
@OP
Use FindFirst/FindNext/FindClose to delete files in the folder then the folder...
You can probably find a far better way to do this.....

bonmario:

--- Code: --- Result:=DeleteDirectory(NomeDir,True);
if Result then begin
Result:=RemoveDirUTF8(NomeDir);
end;

--- End code ---

DeleteDirectory delete the content. A t the end, if all is ok, RemoveDirUTF8 delete the folder.
