  1. Deleted photo reappeared and cannot be deleted


    I checked the photos app recently and saw that a photo I deleted I cleared the recycling bin after deletion as well has come back and if I try to delete it, it will not allow me, saying I do not have permission to delete them. In addition, I cannot go to the file location, and if I click on file info, it says "OneDrive cloud only". I do not have the option to open folder with I right click and I searched both my OneDrive and my PC for the photo and there is no search results.


    What on Earth is happening and how can I re-delete these photos?

    :)

  4. Deleted photo reappeared and cannot be deleted

    Suddenly reappear a deleted folder

    I notices two other strange things.
    1. The folder is not complete empty. It has also a folder inside. In this folder is exist also a empty folder.
    2. I tried to move the 'Public' folder to wastebin and the I asked from Bitdefender to erase the waste bit. Bitdefender read this name wrong. See attachment.
    3. When I confirm to delete it, it said that access denied - See second attachment.

    PS: The folder name between the two screenshots is different because I restore the folder, change the name and move it back to wastebin.
