Folder:

The location of the source folder to remove files from. Select the "Folder ID" option to indicate that the value is a folder identifier from your project. Select the "Property" option to indicate that the value you are entering is a property that holds the folder location rather than a folder reference or path.

Filename:

The name of the source file that you want to remove. It can either be a literal single filename, or you can use wildcard specifiers ("*", and "?") for multiple files. Examples:

myfile.txt

myfile.*

*.txt

file???.*

Timing:

When you want to remove the file(s). Choose from On Install, On Uninstall or Both.

Note: The remove files actions happen before your files are installed.
