Ubuntu

Unable to change permissions

Asked by Jon Charge

I have copied a file from a CD backup that I have. The file is now in my trash bin with permissions set where I can not delete it. Do I have to gksudo a file manager or something?

Error:
Sorry, could not change the permissions of "keys": Operation not supported by backend

open a Terminal, applications--->accesories--->Terminal
copy, paste on the terminal and press ENTER :

sudo rm --verbose --force $HOME/.local/share/Trash/files

sudo rm --verbose --force $HOME/.local/share/Trash/info

if you want to do it Graphical :

gksudo nautilus $HOME/.local/share/Trash/
