Unable to delete a folder

Post by *Ewen »

I use an Xperia Z2 tablet and one of the applications is "Backup and Restore" which comes preloaded on the system. When I use it a folder .semc-fullbackup is created which contains of course details of the backup.

I have started to use TC and on examining the content on the internal storage and the storage in the SD card I have discovered the folder I have mentioned above. I have been using the Xperia File Commander (until I switched to TC) and it does not appear on there so it must be "hidden" to all intents and purposes.

When I delete it TC goes through all the motions and advises that the folder (and contents) have been deleted... but it is still there complete with contents after the process.

Any and all help will be appreciated.

Regards

It sounds like the folder is write protected by permissions. I don't think that you can do much about it, sorry.
