How to fast delete using rd and rmdir or is there a built-in fast folder delete?

XYplorer is very slow in deleting large folders. Probably as slow as Windows File Explorer. They go through the slow 'discovering...' phase and then delete one file at a time. What happened to the "I'll add that to one of the next versions" from 2015 in this wish? Did it get implemented?

The fastest way to delete a large folder is by using DOS commands rd and rmdir. How do I delete a folder where XYPlorer launches these commands for me where I select a folder to be deleted from the folder list? This is more convenient than launching a command prompt and typing.

Code: Select all

run """cmd"" /c rmdir /s /q ""<curitem>""";
