When we want to format or freeze different sections of text in a document, we often divide it into sections for easy implementation without affecting other sections. However, in reality there are many cases where we need to delete them to unify the formatting in the whole text, or in a situation where you have an error when formatting the text, it is likely that they have been broken by Section Break. . They are different formatted sections or segments within the same page or between multiple pages of your document. So we need to delete them quickly without having to search to delete them manually.
