- Observe the following format for the file path:
- Windows platform: Use backward slashes as separators for the path.
- Linux platform: Use forward slashes as separators for the path. (Note that network paths are not supported)
- Note that this built-in action is not currently supported on macOS or mobile platforms.
- Forced deletion is only successful under certain circumstances in which the program would otherwise have insufficient permission for deletion (e.g., a read-only file). However, delete file does not force deletion of a file that has been locked by another process.
- A warning is issued if the file specified in file is not found to exist.
- This action supports the <ignore> modifier. If the string
<ignore>is present as the value of any of the arguments, or any argument contains an expression that evaluates to<ignore>, the action is skipped during execution.
