cannot find Trash folder! Ubuntu 18.04
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty margin-bottom:0;
I am running a preinstalled version
of ubuntu 18.04 but cannot find Trash folder.
The typical places don't have the folder.
~/.local/share/Trash <-- does not exist
/root/..../Trash <-- does not exit
The directory should most likely be here but it's not
/home/$USER/.local/share/Trash <---does not exist
Hmm ... so I ran a search as follows:
sudo find / -type d -iname Trash
The output was not nice:
find: ‘/run/user/1001/gvfs’: Permission denied
/home/$USER/.local/share/evolution/..../trash
/home/$USER/.cache/evolution/.../trash
/user/share/doc/HTML/.../trash
and that's it!
By
...
I meant there are various directories ending with /trash. But that's useless to mention anyhow since we are not really finding the TRASH can.
(Note that I do see a Trash bin on my Desktop, which is ironic. And yes it is empty.)
Question is, where is my TRASH FOLDER ?
And why do I receive the following output when I run the find command
find: ‘/run/user/1001/gvfs’: Permission denied
command-line find delete trash

Try to delete some file, and see if they appear when you click on the Trash icon on desktop.
