# Deleting

## `bk_delete()`

``int `bk_delete``(VolInfo* `volInfo`, const char* `pathAndName`);`

Deletes the file or directory from the ISO, and frees all the memory associated with those items. If `pathAndName` points to a directory, all the contents of the directory are also deleted.

I'm sure I already mentioned somewhere in the manual that the original ISO isn't modified. But I'll reinforce that now - `bk_delete()` will delete from the representation of the ISO in memory, not from the ISO itself. When you write the new ISO, the deleted files won't be there.

Files and directories added to the ISO can also be deleted the same way (from the representation of the new ISO in memory, not from the filesystem).

## `bk_delete_boot_record()`

``void `bk_delete_boot_record``(VolInfo* `volInfo`);`

Deletes the boot record from the ISO. See the notes from `bk_delete()` about how none of the original data is deleted.
