The Trash icon on my Dock shows the Trash containing files. I tried right-clicking and Empty Trash
, but it still shows files there.
When I open the Trash folder in Finder, I can see several files still there.
I tried manually emptying the Trash with rm ~/.Trash/*
, but that doesn't work. In fact, ls ~/.Trash/
shows the folder being empty!
I tried Force Quit
ting Finder, but that didn't help either.
I'm sure rebooting would fix the problem, but I'd prefer a solution that didn't require rebooting.
