Thunar Trash Stopped Working - always asks to permanently delete

https://bbs.archlinux.org – Ok, I think I have a fix. Deleting my Thunar config files helped. But here's the tricky part:You know the "~/.config/Thunar" directory? That apparently is not the Thunar config file location. Instead, I removed "~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/thunar*". After restarting Thunar, my Trash can worked correctly. drcouzelis https://bbs.archlinux.org/profile.php?id=30893 2012-12-12T03:39:10Z (HowTos)

Stories similar to Thunar Trash Stopped Working - always asks to permanently delete

Thunar Trash 1 year 23 weeks ago

I'm working on an external USB HDD in Thunar. The /media/MOUNT folder now contains a ".Trash-1000" folder. I removed it with Shift-Del, created a dummy file and deleted it, and the folder re-appeared, so it's definitely created by Thunar. I've done some searching, but I can't find a way to empty the trash from within Thunar. Any ideas?

Thunar crashes! 27 weeks 5 days ago

I’ve had Thunar 1.6 crash on me too, but with the en_GB.UTF-8 locale, so I don’t know if it’s related.Since I dislike the changes made to thunar, I quickly downgraded to 1.4 which works fine.

I found myself always holding Shift when I delete a file with Thunar (the XFCE file manager).

When I was using Windows I was always disabling "recycle bin" immediately after installation. I've looked for similar option in Thunar settings but had no luck finding it.

Do you happen to know a way?

Yes and no. The problem went away for me after some unknown number of system upgrades. Eventually I was able to delete my thunar-volman wrapper script and have everything work as normal.Good luck.

Thunar trash again (solved) 1 year 21 weeks ago

I am having the same problem as described here since two weeks. I even did not notice it at first.I know the workaround, deleting it also with shift + del. But why is that now? I cannot even delete files on all Windows file systems as root.
