Galaxy Note 10.1 Folder Delete issue

[sirsteve1968]

Hello,

I have tried several times to delete a folder I had created to no avail. I drag it to the trash, but it still appears. Even tried to give it a name of "test" and w/out a name. No change. What are my other options? I have no updates needed to install, so it's most current.

Thanks.

Could you be a bit more specific?
1) Are you trying to delete the folder directly on the tablet or through a computer?
2) Is it a folder you specifically created, or a folder created automatically by an app or the system?
3) Can you create and delete other folders (what about individual files, or files/folders inside the folder you can't delete)?
4) Is this folder in a protected or corrupted SD card?

It is a folder I manually created on the actual tablet. I don't recall having issue like this before though. I also do not recall having any issues deleting files either. The folder is not on an SD card. Thanks.

does anyone have any further suggestions?

Have you tried an alternate file manager? Ex. ES File Explorer: https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...ls?id=com.estrongs.android.pop&token=gPaXV3Hu

If you do use ES File Explorer, you may need to turn on root features if you're rooted, and then re-mount the filesystem as r/w so that you can delete folders. You do the remount r/w in the same root features settings area.
