How can I delete the Read files after --->>(for root, dirs, files in os.walk()) <<--- with function os.remove() in python

Question

I want the program to automatically delete files.

Function accept(os.remove(" ")) the variable in Loop(for).

import shutil import threading import glob import os

def test():
    threading.Timer(5.0, test).start () # Was checked every 3 
    for  root, dirs, files in os.walk("/mydir"):
         for file in files: 
         print(file)
         os.remove(" ") #delete the file
         print("remove the file")

test()

You want `os.remove(os.path.join(root, file))`. – Dan D. May 05 '17 at 11:28 — Dan D., May 05 '17 at 11:28

I believe you want to find the real path of that file to remove it, This answer might help. Python cant get full path name of file
