# Delete files

To delete a file, use `Bun.file(path).delete()`.

```ts delete-file.ts icon="https://mintcdn.com/bun-1dd33a4e-farm-dc5e99a7-serve-route-target-normalization/irnPaIf5BInKUovc/icons/typescript.svg?fit=max&auto=format&n=irnPaIf5BInKUovc&q=85&s=749f5ca3fc8733d63266eddb19569000" theme={null}
// Delete a file
const file = Bun.file("path/to/file.txt");
await file.delete();

// Now the file doesn't exist
const exists = await file.exists();
// => false
```
