# delfile

Removes the file at `path` from Seliware's workspace folder.

```luau theme={null}
delfile(path: string): ()
```

`path` is workspace-relative - no `"workspace/"` prefix, no `"../"` traversal. The deletion is final; there's no recycle bin.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type     | Description     |
| --------- | -------- | --------------- |
| `path`    | `string` | File to delete. |

## Returns

<code title="the function does not return a value.">void</code>
