Hello
Yesterday & today something weird has happened to Dolphin's Trash folder / directory. I assume that the following misbehaviour probably would be fixed simply by logging out & in again, or else rebooting, but instead i would like to see if there's a way to fix it without needing to do either of those.
Whilst currently there a lot of files in Trash, it is very far away from being full. However, since yesterday, i can no longer delete any files from my /home [or anywhere else] by sending them to Trash [though i can still permanently delete them, bypassing Trash, if i want]. Furthermore, i cannot now empty Trash either.
When i try sending more files to Trash, this appears:
When i try emptying Trash, this appears.
I investigated, & found that there were both of the following:
1. /home/kdemeoz/.Trash --> is empty.
2. /home/kdemeoz/.local/share/Trash --> holds my actual deleted "trashed" files.
For comparison i then launched my two Maui 17.03 VMs [all the above pertains to my "real" Maui]. Both of them have NO #1, but do have #2.
Accordingly, back in my "real" Maui i deleted #1, but it has not helped.
What's going on here pls?
