Hello everyone!
I have a word document of several pages but I have pages that are not consecutive and that I no longer need them and I want to delete them. How to do it? I am waiting for the right answer.

    Open the Word Document: Open the Word document where you want to delete the non-consecutive pages.

    Go to the Page: Navigate to the first page you want to delete.

    Select the Content: Click anywhere on the page, then press "Ctrl + Shift + Right Arrow" to select the content. Alternatively, you can use your mouse to select the entire content of the page. If there are headers and footers, make sure you also select them.

    Press the Delete Key: Press the "Delete" key on your keyboard to remove the page content. If this doesn't delete the entire page (for example, if there's a page break), you may also need to delete any section breaks. You can do this by going to the "Home" tab, clicking on the "Show/Hide" button (¶) to reveal formatting symbols, and then deleting the section break.

    Repeat for Other Pages: Repeat steps 2-4 for each non-consecutive page you want to delete.

    Save Your Document: Once you have deleted all the pages you want to remove, save your document to preserve the changes.
