any way to delete files through frontview?

I have/had a large folder I wanted to remove since it was just there for a passover to a new drive and is now obsolete. Now I'm going through windows and deleting but due to the size windows is taking forever discovering the files to delete.

Is there a way to individually delete folders without the intermediary of windows or other os ?

Create a new share under Shares > Share Listing

Connect to CIFS as admin (http://www.readynas.com/kb/faq/share/how_do_i_connect_to_the_readynas_as_admin). Within the C share, move the folder you wish to delete into the folder for the new share. Then delete the new share via Frontview.
