How to Delete DLL Files


1.
Turn on your computer and verify that your hard-drive is connected correctly and that your operating system functions properly. This will prevent errors during the .Dll file deletion process. Log in to your operating system user account and click the 'Start' button in the lower left-hand corner of the screen.
2.
Click the 'My Computer' icon and select your hard-drive (default label is 'C:')
Open the 'My Computer' icon in the 'Start' menu. Enter the 'C:\' hard-drive. Click the 'Windows' folder and select the 'System 32' folder. The 'System 32' directory is where .Dll files are located in Windows. You should see dozens of files, including .Dll files, in the 'System 32' folder in your Windows installation.
3.
'Delete' will remove the .Dll files from your 'System 32' folder.
Right click the .Dll file or files you wish to delete and selete 'Delete' from the mouse menu which pops up in Windows. Click 'Yes' on the dialog box prompting you if you would like to send the .Dll files to the Recycle Bin. Your .Dll files will be deleted and no longer located in the 'System 32' directory.
