Delete a non-empty directory when you get directory not empty error on Linux

Here’s how you can delete a non-empty directory on Linux when you get a “directory not empty” error:

1. Open a terminal and navigate to the directory containing the directory you want to delete.
2. Use the following command to delete the directory and its contents:

Replace <directory name> with the name of the directory you want to delete. The -r option tells rm to remove the directory and its contents recursively, and the -f option forces the deletion without confirming each file.

This command will delete the directory and all of its contents, including any subdirectories and files. Use caution when using this command, as it will permanently delete the specified directory and its contents without any confirmation or opportunity for recovery.
