If you’re working on a lengthy document and you want to delete a page in Microsoft Word, it may become tricky. On Android and iPhone, it’s as simple as holding in the text and deleting it. For Windows and Mac, there’s a neat trick you can try.

Open the Navigation window
In the top menu, select View and enable the Navigation pane. You’ll see a panel open on the left side, which lists all the pages.
Select the page
Find the page you want to delete and click on it. You’ll see that it highlights to confirm that it’s selected.
Delete the page
Once it’s selected, feel free to press the delete button. It will vanish from the list, indicating that it’s gone for all time. Of course, you can press the undo arrow if you made a mistake.
