使用以下方法删除包含文件的整个主目录及其子目录。再次调用此方法后，调用主目录的delete()目录。

// For to Delete the directory inside list of files and inner Directory
public static boolean deleteDir(File dir) {
    if (dir.isDirectory()) {
        String[] children = dir.list();
        for (int i=0; i<children.length; i++) {
            boolean success = deleteDir(new File(dir, children[i]));
            if (!success) {
                return false;
            }
        }
    }

    // The directory is now empty so delete it
    return dir.delete();
}

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()
    }
}
}

短柯尔丁版

fun File.deleteDirectory(): Boolean {
    return if (exists()) {
        listFiles()?.forEach {
            if (it.isDirectory) {
                it.deleteDirectory()
            } else {
                it.delete()
            }
        }
        delete()
    } else false
}

更新

Kotlin标准库函数

file.deleteRecursively()

让我告诉你第一件事你不能删除DCIM文件夹，因为它是一个系统文件夹。当你在手机上手动删除它时，它会删除该文件夹的内容，但不会删除DCIM文件夹。您可以通过以下方法删除其内容:

根据评论更新

File dir = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()+"Dir_name_here"); 
if (dir.isDirectory()) 
{
    String[] children = dir.list();
    for (int i = 0; i < children.length; i++)
    {
       new File(dir, children[i]).delete();
    }
}

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。

这种方法适用于只包含文件的文件夹，但如果您正在寻找还包含子文件夹的场景，则需要递归

此外，您应该捕获返回的返回值，以确保允许您删除该文件

,包括

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

在你的清单上

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]);
            if (temp.isDirectory())
            {
                Log.d("DeleteRecursive", "Recursive Call" + temp.getPath());
                DeleteRecursive(temp);
            }
            else
            {
                Log.d("DeleteRecursive", "Delete File" + temp.getPath());
                boolean b = temp.delete();
                if (b == false)
                {
                    Log.d("DeleteRecursive", "DELETE FAIL");
                }
            }
        }

    }
    dir.delete();
}
