Remove a single file or files from a project using Powershell
I want to delete a Single File or list of files from my project, I don't want to hardcode the complete file path. So if I want to delete this file like for example 'abc.html' from anywhere in my project. I know we can use Remove-Item but I am not sure how to use it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Here's an example:Get-ChildItem -Recurse -Filter abc.html | Remove-Item -WhatIf(remove the-WhatIfonce the preview shows that the correct file(s) are targeted).
