I am using m1 macbook air. The bin of my Mac is not showing any option to delete individual files of bin. If I want to delete something permanently then I have an option as "Empty bin" but I don't want to delete all the files, I just want to delete a single file. Is there any solution for my problem.
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.4
The "bin" is a trash can and that is usually the place where you place things that need to be deleted permanently. It is not considered a "storage" bin. That is why emptying the trash is all or nothing.
If you want to get rid of only one file, then you need to temporarily move the other items back to your desktop, empty the trash, and place the other items back into the trash.
A much better way would be to create a folder on your desktop, called "trash?" and put in there anything you are not sure you actually want to get rid of it.
I meant: that should work = open the bin, right-click on the file(s) and choose ‘delete immediately’ only the selected file(s) will be removed from the bin
If you open the bin, do you select the file(s) you want to delete permanently? That should work eventually, try right-clicking on a file in bin
Delete individual files of bin
