On an exterior FAT32 exhausting drive there’s a file within the Bin (.Trashes) which I can’t delete. Even when I attempt to delete it on the command line utilizing
rm offending_file
I get an error
rm: offending_file: No such file or listing
I additionally simply ran the “First Support” from the “Disk Utility” however that instrument didn’t discover any points.
So what else can I do to take away/repair that file?
Additionally, when I attempt to take away the folder containing that file with
rm -rf folder
I get the error
rm: folder/: Permission denied
even after I run the command with sudo rights.
ls -l of the containing folder reveals
-rwx------ 1 alex workers 67755741 Oct 18 04:51 offending_file
When opening the “Bin” on MacOS I solely see an empty folder I can’t delete instantly as an error pops up saying the merchandise “is in use”, which, after all, will not be the case.
