Folders are for windows-

Linux folders are called "Directories" -

To remove a directory, send this command on you SSH session:

CODE:

rmdir /path/to/directory/name

/path/to/directory/name is the full path to where the directory is at that you want to delete.

Example: I wan to delete the forums directory and the forums directory is at /var/www/html/forums i would have to do this:

move to the html directory

CODE:

cd /var/www/html

Then delete the forums directory

CODE:

rmdir forums

DONE
