Fun story: I had a File of 3Gb and wanted to send it via WeTransfer. Because I only have the free Version I wanted to split it into 2 Parts of 1.5GB. Because I am an Idiot I ended up zipping it in parts of 2 BYTES. TWO BYTES. Well “fortunately” I stopped the process a few minutes in. Still, damage is done, I have about 10^9 or more Files of 2Kb each on my Desktop now and I am totally screwed because I need my PC to work 🙁
I have done a bit of research already and found ways to delete huge folders like this. Problem is here that the files are on my Desktop and I think I might damage my system even more right? Would be epic if anyone could help. Best regards.
EDIT: What would have taken days with windows explorer > move to trash > delete, apparently got solved in an instant with CMD del filename*. Thanks everyone for your help, especially

Lesson learned! 🙂
