Delete the supplied File - for directories, recursively delete any nested directories or files as well.

Note: Like File.delete(), this method does not throw any exception but rather silently returns false in case of I/O errors. Consider using deleteRecursively(Path) for NIO-style handling of I/O errors, clearly differentiating between non-existence and failure to delete an existing file.

Params:
  • root – the root File to delete
Returns:true if the File was successfully deleted, otherwise false
