How do I delete files?

I have some folders with synced data that I no longer need. If I go to edit - remove it tells me no data will be deleted. How do I delete the folders and the data in them?

Screenshots would be welcome, but in general, you need to delete the data from the disk manually.

I figured I need to delete it manually but I can’t seem to find any file system browser or any way to browse the synced files on the server.

The folder paths are ~/(numbers and letters) so I’m assuming I’d need to go to var/syncthing/(letters and numbers) but I have no idea how to get there

Yeah, so it’s really not possible to say anything more without knowing what the operating system in question is :frowning:. What can be said for sure is that Syncthing itself will only delete the folders from its configuration, but it will not touch the actual files, so you do need to use either some kind of a graphical file explorer or the command line to delete them physically.

It’s running within TrueNAS, sorry

Edit - looks like I can just delete the share from within Truenas and start over. I’m having permission issues I can’t figure out anyways.

Any thoughts?

This is more of a TrueNAS question than a Syncthing question.

I can go into the shell via the syncthing app within truenas and see the folders, I just don’t know the commands to delete them
