To delete a single blob from a container, use [Delete(std::string&, std::string&)](/reference/system/Wrappers/classes/provider/methods/xgamesave_wrapper_provider_delete_string_string).

To delete one or more blobs from a container, use [Delete(std::string&, BlobNames&)](/reference/system/Wrappers/classes/provider/methods/xgamesave_wrapper_provider_delete_string_blobnames).
