Apologies!

I am trying to delete files and documents from my hard drive. Seemingly the error happens mostly when deleting video files, either from Downloads and Documents.


An additional question. If I have downloaded a file then saved it elsewhere on my computer. Is the same file that is still in my download folder just a copy which can be deleted? Or if deleted from the download folder will it also go from the additional saved location?
