Erased forever: Files in your trash are still sitting around. To permanently delete a file on Windows without sending it to the Recycle Bin, hold Shift + Delete. On a Mac, select the file, click File from the menu bar, then hold the Option key. Watch as the “Move to Trash” option magically changes to Delete Immediately.
