What is the "recycle bin?"
cmd-opt-delete will "delete immediately."

Not at a Mac to check, but hold down the Option key and look at what appears when you select the File menu.
That’s why the Option key exists, to give you options.
Thanks,
Is the keyboard shortcut the only way to do this now? I tend to forget keyboard shortcuts so prefer to use file>delete etc. but I don't see this anywhere anymore.
I was hoping this method would solve the proble I am having:
I have checked the file and 'locked' is unckecked and also greyed out. All options are set to 'read & write'
can you help?
