Can I delete all photos from iphone from Windows 11?
Yes, it is possible to delete all photos from iPhone 15 Pro Max using a Windows 11 computer without selecting each photo individually. Since you already backed up your photos to an external hard drive, you can safely delete all photos from iPhone to free up space. There are a few methods to do this, including using dedicated iPhone erasing or cleaning apps on Windows.

1. Connect your iPhone to your Windows 11 PC via a USB cable.
2. Unlock your iPhone and tap "Trust" if prompted, to allow the PC to access your device.
3. Open File Explorer on Windows.
4. Locate your iPhone under "This PC" or "Devices and drives" — it should appear as a new device with your iPhone's name.
5. Double-click to open your iPhone’s storage, then navigate to Internal Storage > DCIM folder.
6. Inside, you'll find folders containing your photos and videos.
7. Select all the folders (press Ctrl + A), then press Delete to remove all photos at once.
