Thanks ceford, I tried method number 1:
1. **Using `rm` with `find` (Efficient for Large Directories)**
```
sudo find /path/to/folder -type f -delete
sudo find /path/to/folder -type d -empty -delete
```
This deletes files first and then removes empty directories, reducing the load on the filesystem.
And it worked beautifully. I am so grateful! The percentage of used inodes in the system went from 99% to 5%.
I forgot to add sudo to the beginning of the command and of course the system came back with errors denying access. But what it DID do was give me the answer as to how these files are stored. Here are some examples:
So the answer to the question about the layout of any subdirectories is "there are none." You can see the file nomenclature used. So hopefully anyone else whose website was torpedoed by this plugin now reading this thread will have a way to remove the files.
