Delete a Realm - .NET SDK

In some circumstances, such as a client reset scenario, you might need to delete a realm file and its auxiliary files. If you are developing or debugging the app, you might manually delete the realm file, but doing so when the app is running and any realm instances are still open can cause data corruption.

To delete a realm file while the app is running, you can use the DeleteRealm(configuration) method to safely do so. The following code demonstrates this:

var config = new RealmConfiguration("FileWeThrowAway.realm");
Realm.DeleteRealm(config);
var freshRealm = Realm.GetInstance(config);
