How I delete all my Google Docs (with no collections)?

Question

A similar question to mine has been asked before - I want to be able to delete all my Google Docs at once. I used a synchronization app called Syncplicity which synced all my documents with my Google Docs. Unfortunately, due to a bug, it caused loads of errors and problems which I won't go into.

The answer to the question that was asked previously was to

move a collection to the bin which also moves all documents within said collection

Unfortunately none of my documents are in a collection. I have literally thousands of documents and either bulk selecting the documents page by page and adding them to a category or to the trash bin will take ages. Is there a way to say I want all my documents deleted? I thought of closing my Google Docs account, but I do want to use Google Docs in the future and apparently Google doesn't properly delete the Docs straight away anyway.

Answer 1

In order to delete all of your Google Docs without using external software:

1. Sign into your Google Docs account
2. On the left hand side, there is a list of different pre-named folders like "Home" and "Starred". There should also be a label called "All Items"--select this.
3. You will see a list of all documents (and collections, if you have any). There will be a check box next to "Title" like this:
4. Select this box, and all of your documents will be selected
5. A new set of options will pop up above the list of documents. Click on the trash icon to delete all of your documents.

Answer 2

Use CyberDuck, sign in to your Google Docs account and delete them from there. All at once.

Answer 3

ctrl+A to select all and then press Delete.
