这(尝试删除所有子文件和子目录，包括提供的目录):

如果是文件，删除 如果是空目录，请删除 如果不是空目录，再次调用删除子目录，重复1到3

例子:

File externalDir = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
Utils.deleteAll(externalDir); //BE CAREFUL.. Will try and delete ALL external storage files and directories

访问“外部存储目录”需要具备以下权限:

(使用ContextCompat。checkSelfPermission和ActivityCompat.requestPermissions)

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

递归方法:

public static boolean deleteAll(File file) {
    if (file == null || !file.exists()) return false;

    boolean success = true;
    if (file.isDirectory()) {
        File[] files = file.listFiles();
        if (files != null && files.length > 0) {
            for (File f : files) {
                if (f.isDirectory()) {
                    success &= deleteAll(f);
                }
                if (!f.delete()) {
                    Log.w("deleteAll", "Failed to delete " + f);
                    success = false;
                }
            }
        } else {
            if (!file.delete()) {
                Log.w("deleteAll", "Failed to delete " + file);
                success = false;
            }
        }
    } else {
        if (!file.delete()) {
            Log.w("deleteAll", "Failed to delete " + file);
            success = false;
        }
    }
    return success;
}

这是kotlin选项。它运行得很好。

fun executeDelete(context: Context, paths: List<String>): Int {
    return try {
        val files = paths.map { File(it) }
        val fileCommands = files.joinToString(separator = " ") {
            if (it.isDirectory) "'${it.absolutePath}/'" else "'${it.absolutePath}'"
        }
        val command = "rm -rf $fileCommands"
        val process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(arrayOf("sh", "-c", command))
        val result = process.waitFor()
        if (result == 0) {
            context.rescanPaths(paths)
        }
        result
    } catch (e: Exception) {
        -1
    }
}

//避免在一行中多次调用，它可以删除整个文件夹内容

fun Context.rescanPaths(paths: List<String>, callback: (() -> Unit)? = null) {
if (paths.isEmpty()) {
    callback?.invoke()
    return
}

var cnt = paths.size
MediaScannerConnection.scanFile(applicationContext, paths.toTypedArray(), null) { _, _ ->
    if (--cnt == 0) {
        callback?.invoke()
    }
}
}

从目录中删除所有文件的简单方法:

它是一个通用函数，用于删除目录中的所有图像

deleteAllImageFile(背景);

public static void deleteAllFile(Context context) {
File directory = context.getExternalFilesDir(null);
        if (directory.isDirectory()) {
            for (String fileName: file.list()) {
                new File(file,fileName).delete();
            }
        }    
    } 

private static void deleteRecursive(File dir)
{
    //Log.d("DeleteRecursive", "DELETEPREVIOUS TOP" + dir.getPath());
    if (dir.isDirectory())
    {
        String[] children = dir.list();
        for (int i = 0; i < children.length; i++)
        {
            File temp = new File(dir, children[i]);
            deleteRecursive(temp);
        }

    }

    if (dir.delete() == false)
    {
        Log.d("DeleteRecursive", "DELETE FAIL");
    }
}

我把这一个虽然它的步伐，它删除文件夹与任何目录结构。

public int removeDirectory(final File folder) {

    if(folder.isDirectory() == true) {
        File[] folderContents = folder.listFiles();
        int deletedFiles = 0;

        if(folderContents.length == 0) {
            if(folder.delete()) {
                deletedFiles++;
                return deletedFiles;
            }
        }
        else if(folderContents.length > 0) {

            do {

                File lastFolder = folder;
                File[] lastFolderContents = lastFolder.listFiles();

                //This while loop finds the deepest path that does not contain any other folders
                do {

                    for(File file : lastFolderContents) {

                        if(file.isDirectory()) {
                            lastFolder = file;
                            lastFolderContents = file.listFiles();
                            break;
                        }
                        else {

                            if(file.delete()) {
                                deletedFiles++;
                            }
                            else {
                                break;
                            }

                        }//End if(file.isDirectory())

                    }//End for(File file : folderContents)

                } while(lastFolder.delete() == false);

                deletedFiles++;
                if(folder.exists() == false) {return deletedFiles;}

            } while(folder.exists());
        }
    }
    else {
        return -1;
    }

    return 0;

}

希望这能有所帮助。

这是另一种(现代)解决方法。

public class FileUtils {
    public static void delete(File fileOrDirectory) {
        if(fileOrDirectory != null && fileOrDirectory.exists()) {
            if(fileOrDirectory.isDirectory() && fileOrDirectory.listFiles() != null) {      
                Arrays.stream(fileOrDirectory.listFiles())
                      .forEach(FileUtils::delete);
            }
            fileOrDirectory.delete();
        }
    }
}

从API 26开始在Android上运行

public class FileUtils {

    public static void delete(File fileOrDirectory)  {
        if(fileOrDirectory != null) {
            delete(fileOrDirectory.toPath());
        }
    }

    public static void delete(Path path)  {
        try {
            if(Files.exists(path)) {
                Files.walk(path)
                        .sorted(Comparator.reverseOrder())
                        .map(Path::toFile)
//                      .peek(System.out::println)
                        .forEach(File::delete);
            }
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}
