On my netbook, I have word pad, which is adequate for me, but as yet I haven't found how to delete documents. Does anyone know please.

Same as any other file, in Explorer, right click and choose from the options.0

I almost added that right clicking isn't the answer, because rt clicking give two options only, 1 show quick access toolbar etc and 2 minimize the ribbonThis is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0

Open Explorer, navigate to folder containing the file you want to delete.
Highlight it with left mouse click, hit Delete key (on keyboard)0 -
OK, so far almost so good. The actual docs have now gone, but the list of them is still visible in Recent DocumentsThis is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0

I don't suppose it does, but I tend to produce emails/letters when I'm travelling and invariably it is to the same people, then when I'm on-line, send them over. If I have half a dozen to each person, it will be hit and miss which is the right one. To remove them when sent, seems to be ideal.This is a system account and does not represent a real person.
