WinZip can remove selected files from within an existing archive, or delete the entire archive. Delete from the Actions menu activates the Delete dialog box. There are two ways to start the action to delete files from an archive:
- Select entries from the list box in an open archive, then choose the Delete entry from the Actions pull-down menu or press the Del key.
- Choose the Delete entry from the Actions menu to bring up the Delete dialog box. You can then specify the file names you want to delete (standard Windows wildcards are accepted, so you could use "*.doc" to delete all .doc files).
Note: these operations cannot be undone.
To delete an entire archive, choose Delete from the Actions menu to bring up the Delete dialog. Then choose the All files/folders in archive option and click Delete. Alternatively, you can choose Delete from the Manage Archive submenu of the File menu.
