C and Delphi are completly OT here.
Also, C++ has no concept of "drives", or "deletion", so please ask in a
group dedicated to your platform.

Well, it does have the remove(const char *) function for deleting a file.

But there is no reasonable, topical answer to the OP's question.

Wow, I was able to miss that and use platform specific removal functions for
quite a while! :S
