Deleting Documnets

Hello,
I am trying to delete photos from my computer. There are located in My
Documents. Every time I right click to delete an item it keeps making copies
of the documents. It has made as many as 2 - 3 hundred copies. I don't know
why this is doing this. I have delete thing before and I have never had this
problem. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

So don't right click, as whatever you're doing appears to be making
copies.

Change your View to Details, click on one file, hold Shift and
down-arrow to select all the ones you want to delete. You can use
Ctrl-click to select or deselect non-contiguous files. Then press Delete
(or Shift Delete to bypass the Recycle Bin).
