It seems that there is a ghost living in my trash. Every time I empty the trash can I get the following message:

The file or folder /home/user/.local/share/Trash/files/file.zip does not exist.

It seems that the trash is still registering a file or trying to delete a file that doesn't exist anymore. Is there a way to purge this?

Try the following:

Code: Select all

rm -f ~/.local/share/Trash/*/*
