You can't move example.file to the trash can. Do you want to remove it immediately?

I had the same problem and found out that the trash had the wrong owner. So I deleted the trash folder and made a new one.



Steps:




  1. cd ~/.local/share

  2. ls -ld Trash

  3. Now you have to look if it has the right owner.

  4. If the owner is root - delete the folder with: sudo rm -r Trash

  5. mkdir -m 700 Trash



Hope I could help and that it solved your problem, because it did for me.
