I often search for files in Spotlight (⌘ + space) then double-click to open them in Preview.
Is there a best way to then delete the file?
Options, things I've considered.
There must be an easy way.
Thank you for your help.
If you command-click the filename while in Preview you get a drop down menu showing the path to the file. Click on the folder that contains the file to open that folder. Then delete it. That’s how I always find the file and it’s easy.

Thank you everyone for the prompt replies, I've learnt two great new shortcuts
There is always more to learn :-)
Fantastic, thank you
Where is the file or files in question actually located ?
If the user knows that information, navigate to the Store Location and Drag and Drop the file to Trash
+1
In addition to the suggestions you already have: straight from the Spotlight window, you can press Command-R to reveal the file in Finder, then press Command-Delete to put it in the trash.
