if you can’t delete a file from trash here is the solution.
run the command on terminal :
admin@smartproteam$ nautilus /home/smartproteam/.local/share/Trash/files/
nautilus windows opens like below
Now select the file and delete.
Share With Others
cd /home/smartproteam/.local/share/Trash/files/
sudo rm -rf *
huh? if there’s a problem with the file you’re trying to delete (no permissions, file being used by other program, broken link, etc) removing it directly from the trash directory won’t help, unless you’re dealing with a bug in Ubuntu itself, which is also a possiblity.
is there a way to reproduce the problem?
“a windows explorer opens like below”
You mean a Nautilus window?
