I advice to check out the link as the formating in this post is incorrect. Also its not a 1’s as Mentioned(ones). Its LS lowercase.

ls is listing off whats in the sdcard, so you can pick the folder to delete.

Open Command Prompt as Admin, and Type:  
adb shell

Then type:  
cd sdcard

Then type:  
ls (which is lowercase LS)  
This will give you a list of jazz, pick which to delete. ie: Alarms DCIM UE4Game etc etc

Then type:  
rm -r UE4Game/ (this deletes all in that folder)

Good luck.

Note, To delete games from Oculus Quest, that are unknown sources, you can use this command:  
open cmd as admin and type:  
adb uninstall com.YourCompany.Nameofgame

(note: com.YourCompany.Nameofgame is from project settings-Platform-Android- Android Package Name)

Cheers
