There are new optional parameters in FileOps for Studio 10.2.x - I haven't tried them, but here's the built-in Help --
FileOps.$deletefile(cPath[,bDeleteContents=kFalse,bRecursive=kFalse])
Deletes the file or folder named cPath.
bDeleteContents deletes files inside cPath.
bRecursive deletes sub-folders inside cPath if bDeleteContents is true.
Files deleted with $deletefile() are not moved into the Recycled bin or Trash can, they are deleted irreversibly.
You can delete a folder with $deletefile(), but only if it is empty.
The function returns an error code, or zero if successful: see the FileOps function error codes.
