How do I delete a non-empty directory in Termux?

Directory and Folder both are similar things. In Kali Linux or any terminal users prefer to call a folder a directory. But if you are a Termux user and using the rm command to delete a non-empty directory then you will be welcomed with an error.

So, the question is how we can delete the non-empty directory in Termux. Here we will use a simple command known as rm-rf. Let’s take an example to understand it better. AKTERMUX is a directory name and if we want to delete it from our termux terminal then we use the rm -rf command as given below.

$ rm -rf AKTERMUX

Here, rm refers to remove, and -rf refers to the user wanting to delete the directory forcefully.
