Hi all: I recently tried deleting an old copy of Safari Tech Preview and have some items in the trash that refuse to delete. When deleting I get the msg that the items below are in use: /private/var/folders/l_/v64sxdkd6fn8xb9xdmb6w5j40000gn/0 com.apple.SafariTechnologyPreview I’ve logged out and back in again as well as doing a restart but whatever the linked process it must respawn. Activity monitor doesn’t offer any clues as to which process is causing the problem. The only way I can think of emptying the trash is via terminal and sudo. Could someone tell me the commands for using sudo to force empty the trash. I’m running in a user account Thanks, Chris Mojave 10.14.5 _______________________________________________ MacOSX-talk mailing list [email protected] http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
