No Option to Delete

I'm an editor for a folder with multiple collaborators. The images did not upload correctly, so I need to reset the entire folder and redo the upload. It will not let me bulk delete the files. There are so many images that manually deleting each photo is out of the question. Why isn’t there a way to bulk delete? That should be a basic feature of any file sharing platform.

    Hi Asia, 

    Welcome to Box Community and glad to help! 

    To delete multiple files and/or folders:

    1. Select the items you'd like to delete by pressing and holding the Shift or Command key and clicking next to each file/folder name.  Press Shift to select everything between the first and last item.  Press Command to select multiple items individually.  Selected items are highlighted.
    2. When you have selected all items, scroll to the top of the file display and in the upper-right click the trash icon.

    Hope it helps!
