Delete multiple pics without copying

[Guest]

I used to select multiple .jpeg images for deletion using Ctrl + select, and then 'Delete'. When I do this in XP, it deletes the images AND makes a copy of them, so I can never actually get rid of them!! Any ideas anyone??? TIA

This usually occurs when selecting images holding the control key and the
mouse button is released while dragging. To select images in consecutive
order use the shift key select the first and last image to highlight all
images in between release the mouse button then right click the highlighted
image(s) choose delete. To select images that are not in consective order
use the control key then after highlighting the images you wish to delete
release the mouse button then right click the highlighted image(s) choose
delete.

recycle bin if you use that)
