Welcome to Android Central! Which phone? Are you using the Downloads "app"? If so, then try using a file manager app and go to /storage/sdcard0/Download, and delete from there.

It will not let me delete any other documents except gallery, I have a Motorola and a friend sent a picture, but it saved on a file named messenger

It will not delete, what do I do?
