Summary of the issue you are facing:
The option “permanently delete” is only available on some files and directories, I am unable to delete files or directories that do not show that option. The same affected items also cannot be moved, only copied.
Steps to replicate it:
-
Navigate to a file that cannot be deleted
-
Click the three dots
-
Search for the “permanently delete” option
Log entries
Nothing relevant is logged at the time of the issue, because I cannot click the option in the first place.

The two directories ending with “Mp3” cannot be deleted for example. There are tons of other examples, that I cannot delete.
Other directories can be deleted permanently just fine.
