It’s possible to directly delete a movie or TV episode from within the app if you’ve enabled the ability to do so. Be very careful with enabling and using this ability.

Warning!: Deleting an item this way will immediately remove it from your Library and will also delete the corresponding media file. This will usually place it in your operating system’s Recycle Bin or Trash, but it could immediately and permanently delete the item from your disk.

Enable Deletion

To start, you’ll have to make sure that the ability to delete media is enabled for your Plex Media Server. This option is found under Settings > Server > Library.
