Re: Deleting a folder from the IFS

[Brian <system.i.lists@xxxxxxxxx>]

Albert,

Try WRKLNK on the parent directory then take option 2=Edit. Find the folder
you're trying to delete and use option 9=Recursive Delete on that folder.
This works on later OS versions but I'm not sure about V4R5.

Kind  regards,

BJ
