Solution

The command that will delete a directory from the file system is A. rmdir directory. Here's how you can use it:

  1. Open your terminal.
  2. Navigate to the location where the directory is located using the 'cd' command. For example, if your directory is in the Desktop, you can type 'cd Desktop'.
  3. Once you're in the correct location, you can delete the directory by typing 'rmdir' followed by the name of the directory. For example, if your directory is named 'Test', you would type 'rmdir Test'.
  4. Press enter and the directory will be deleted.

Please note that the 'rmdir' command only works on empty directories. If your directory contains files or other directories, you'll need to delete those first or use a different command like 'rm -r directory'.
