Remove folder and files sometime fails

[maxim]

Sometimes Files does not allow me to remove some files. When I am removing a folder, it says that few files in it can not be removed and stop removal process. It happens with external drives usually. The files in question could be removed with Finder though.

Another strange thing is that when files removal process is aborted, it's empty progress bar stays in the notification area (box in the middle of app header) until I explicitly press X button next to the progress bar.

Problem seem to persist with both FIles and Files Pro.

Yeah, there is something fishy going on with file deletions. I haven't experience the problems Maxim mentioned above, but I've noticed strange behavior. Sometimes there's a weird delay and the view "catches up" with the fact that files were deleted only after a few seconds. And sometime it doesn't refresh at all. The folder that Files just deleted is still hanging there, until I change folders and thus refresh the view.

Hi Maxim and Darek,

Can you describe some scenario which can reproduce this behaviour so I can debug it?

Mike.
