# rclone purge
|
|
|
|
Remove the path and all of its contents.
|
|
|
|
## Synopsis
|
|
|
|
|
|
Remove the path and all of its contents. Note that this does not obey
|
|
include/exclude filters - everything will be removed. Use the `delete`
|
|
command if you want to selectively delete files. To delete empty directories only,
|
|
use command `rmdir` or `rmdirs`.
|
|
|
|
**Important**: Since this can cause data loss, test first with the
|
|
`--dry-run` or the `--interactive`/`-i` flag.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
rclone purge remote:path [flags]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Options

|

```
|
|
