    The point of the question is if I am able to delete large numbers of photos at once, by simply selecting them in bulk.

    It wont help if I have to click each photo to select it.

     There are hundreds I needs to delete.

    Thanks for the answer, but this does not work. Holding down the 'ctrl' key, won't highlight my choices.. Still I must check one by one....

    And it won't work if I check the last and first in a series of photos, holding the 'shift' key, like I would do in a any Windows photo file.

    Best way I've found is to click on one photo then hold shift and go down your list and highlight as much as you want to delete. I just deleted 100 from mine in seconds. I just had to refresh for it to show the results.

    Hi Tina,

    If you hold down the “ctrl” key on the keyboard, and click on 1,2,3, photos etc., you’ll notice they’ll all start highlighting. You can then right click on 1 of those, and delete.

    Let me know if this helps!

    Just sign into the web - https://onedrive.live.com/about/en-us/signin/

    Select Files then select Pictures folder, then Camera Roll, from there use Ctrl + A to select all photos then delete. 

    Hope this helps.
