Can't delete "metadata" folder in media files - no premission

Featured Replies

Im using Unraid 6.12.5 and Jellyfin. I have moved my jellyfin metadata to store it in jellyfin folder, but I have old metadata inside media folders. In every season of tv show there is old metadata folder with .jpg. It says I have no premission to delete folder or .jpg files. I was trying to use ubuntu and windows 10 to delete them. I have a lot to delete manually, but I can't even start. Before that I was using truenas scale and this metadata was created under that OS. I copied all the media files from Truenas Scale on NTFS HDD in windows 10, then I moved them to Unraid server. How can I delete those folders with metadata from jellyfin?

The permissions would be incorrect.   Use Krusader or File Manager (both available within Apps) to delete or alternatively the command line

Had the same Problem in the past and it got to a point that even Krusader couldn't delete so i ignored it a few weeks/months until i couldn't any longer and then searched around and found the Solution i just entered in the Krusader config PUID and PGID a 0 and after that i could finally delete all those undeleteable stuff

Thanks guys. 5 hours of manual deleting ... But now I added my new TOSHIBA MG09ACA18TE as parity. Only 18h of sync and I am good ;)
