cant delete "Previously Relocated Items" folder
I have a "Previously Relocated Items" folder in my trash that is refusing to be deleted.
I tried the sudo method in a terminal and still no good.
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.13

i think i would try temporarily disabling SIP. boot into recovery by holding "command+R" during startup. once there open terminal by clicking on "utilities" in the menubar and choosing "terminal". then paste in "csrutil disable" without the quotes. enter your admin password if prompted. then restart the mac and try deleting the file. wether or not it works, make sure to re-enable SIP. boot into recovery again, reopen terminal and paste in "csrutil enable" without the quotes. enter your admin password if prompted and again restart the mac normally.

Try restarting and then try to empty the Trash while holding down the Option key.
Did that before I did the terminal thing.
It keeps giving a File cant be deleted because it is required by macOS error
I've also tried running disk doctor to see if it would fix the permissions, no soap.
The stopper appears to be a link to my X-11 folder I cant get rid of
Thanks for helping.
