I have a piece of code which downloads a plugin from a direct download URL
I also have some code which will check if there is a new version out

I need you to code something where the plugin deletes itself from the plugins folder. I'm not sure if this is possible so i will accept it if your code can delete a different plugin from the plugins folder

// Java program to delete a file
import java.io.*;
 
public class Test
{
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        File file = new File("C:\\Users\\Mayank\\Desktop\\1.txt");
         
        if(file.delete())
        {
            System.out.println("File deleted successfully");
        }
        else
        {
            System.out.println("Failed to delete the file");
        }
    }
}

You can try something like this. Make sure the plugin is disabled and no longer being used by the server. It still might fail as the "File is currently running in another program" message may stop it.

Thanks a lot, I'll try it
