Delete Files Icon

Q: When should I use it instead of a similar icon?

Use it for remove controls on upload queue rows, taking a document out before the form is sent; and attachment chips on tickets and invoices, unlinking a document while the original stays in the drive. For a row in an audit log or upload list for a document that is already gone or failed, use the File Deleted icon. For erasing a document for good from a drive, with no restore, use the Trash icon. For taking a whole directory out of a shared space, use the Minus Folder icon.

Document page with a folded corner and a minus at the bottom left, for removing, deleting and detaching files. Available in 4 styles (outline, solid, duotone and filled) as a React component you install with the shadcn CLI.

Delete Files icon FAQ

What does this icon show?

Document page with a folded corner and a minus at the bottom left, for removing, deleting and detaching files. Typical uses: remove an uploaded attachment, delete button in a file row and detach a document from a record.

When should I use it instead of a similar icon?

Use it for:

Remove controls on upload queue rows, taking a document out before the form is sent
Attachment chips on tickets and invoices, unlinking a document while the original stays in the drive

For a row in an audit log or upload list for a document that is already gone or failed, use the File Deleted icon. For erasing a document for good from a drive, with no restore, use the Trash icon. For taking a whole directory out of a shared space, use the Minus Folder icon.

Which styles does it come in?

4 styles: Outline, Solid, Duotone and Filled. Every style is drawn on the same 24 by 24 grid and installs as its own file, so you can switch styles without touching the layout.

How do I install it with the shadcn CLI?

Copy the install command from the panel above, in the style you want, and run it in your project. The shadcn CLI adds the icon as a React component that you import and render like any other. It draws in the current text color, so your text color and size classes style it. Icon installs need a ReUI Ultimate license.

What icons go well with it?

File Down and Update File sit beside it in the same toolbar or menu. More from the same family and the Files set: Delete Folder, Tablet Delete, Add Files and Some Files.

When was it added?

It joined the ReUI icon library on June 30, 2026.
