Configure.Await(false) with fire and forget async calls

Question

Currently in my console application, I do the following to delete files in fire and forget style.

I was wondering if there is any performance gain in setting ConfigureAwait(false) for each of these Task.Run calls?

(My assumption is no, since I am not awaiting the call but I am not sure)

 for(var file in files)
  '
  '
  // Check for certain file condition and decide to delete it. 
  '
  '
  if(shouldDeleteFile)
  {
    Task.Run(() => File.Delete(file));
  }

Answer 1

ConfigureAwait(false) would not do anything here, because there is no await to configure.

It's "configure await", not "configure task".

Answer 2

It is self-explanatory if you look at the signature of the method itself:

public ConfiguredTaskAwaitable ConfigureAwait (bool continueOnCapturedContext);

the argument is continueOnCapturedContext, it is a continuation but you said you are doing your job in fire and forget manner, you are not doing await. Conclusion, there is no effect since you do not have any continuation.
