Hello !
I have a problem when I try to delete a single item located in my trash. I got an error code -36.
I give you a picture of the trash just below, then you see what's in there.
I tried the secured deleting of the trash, but now way...
I tried "Trash it" and it was ok for trashing everything else but the directory "bundles (désactivés)" below.
Thank you for you answer !

Hi !
Sorry, but that didn't help me at all. Tried all the techniques described in the document you suggested to me.
I thought the "sudo rm -ri ~/.Trash" would give me the solution...
Any clue ? The file and the directory that is in my trash is something that has to do with the mail application.
Thanks for your answer
You are welcome. Have you quit Mail? Logged out/in?
sudo rm -rf ~/.Trash
Should nuke it without any hesitation. Just log out and back in after to get a new invisible trash folder. The leading dot means that it's invisible--not talking about the trash folder in the Dock. And be sure the syntax of this command is EXACTLY how it is written here. Best to copy/paste. Check the spaces carefully. One typo can lead to a disaster.
I never use Mail, so it's not a question of logging in/out. I use instead Thunderbird for years.
I cannot replace the item in the trash back where it was before or make a "move", it just makes a copy of it outside the trash.
Thanks Eric
