    Hello, I changes my URL from antoniovillah.wordpress.com to t0ni0v.wordpress.com, but some files with the previous address are still available when I google them like: http://antoniovillah.files.wordpress.com/2013/12/antonio-villa-resume-for-blog1.pdf

    How can I delete this PDF file from the previous URL?

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    If you recently deleted your earlier site as a part of changing your site URL and username, it may take a little while before all files are removed from your old site (around 3 days if I remember correctly). If this is a personal safety issue, please post back here and I will tag this for Staff assistance.

    Regardless, this will not affect Google’s cache and that will only be cleared out at the next crawl of the googlebot. If you need to, you can request to have an URL removed directly at Google.

    FWIW, I could not find that file by searching on Google for your name and CV, so it is more of a question as to who has a direct link to it.
