AssetsV2 Folder relocated can't be deleted...

Please help me figure out why I can't delete this folder that was relocated. It contains a bunch of folders referencing Mobile Assets. I have tried to change the permissions in order to delete it but no matter what I do it stays in the trash.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

Hello J_Vanderet,

The reason you can't delete that folder is because it contains components that are part of the MacOS operating system. No matter what changes you make to your permissions, it will not allow you to delete that folder. The MacOS software secures that folder so it can't be deleted, since doing so would cause the computer to no longer work properly.

Cheers!
