Besides, first option can fail if you don't have write access to the file, thus needing a third access to check for permission to delete. Better use Try and catch the Error; let me explain: If you want to analyze the access to disk, the Try/Catch will access n times the disk, n the amount of files. The <If Exist(...) Then Kill ...> will access the disk at least n and at most 2n. 3n at most if you check for write permissions.
