Hello,

Disk Space in my trial dev space has reached 100%. I am trying to delete projects to free some space but i am not able to delete any files or projects. I tried all option to clear cache and trash folders by following this GA Support but it still does not work.

Please help/ guide me how i can resolve this issue to get some space in my BAS.

Thanks and Regards,

Navya

Hi,

It looks like you are using Theia menu or right click menu. Please do not use it to delete the files.

Please open the Terminal and follow these steps as described in GA:

3. Clean the Trash folder in the "/home/user/.local/share/Trash/files" path by running the following command:

rm -rf /home/user/.local/share/Trash/files

4. Clean the yarn cache folder in the "/home/user/.local/cache" path by running the following command:

rm -rf /home/user/.cache

5. Clean the npm cache folder in the "/home/user/.npm" path by running the following command:

rm -rf /home/user/.npm

Note that deleting files or folders using Theia menu is not actually deletes the files but moves them to the Trash folder.

To actually delete the files, you should use the rm command from the terminal.

Step 3 above will clean your Trash folder.

Regards,

Boris

I already have that option checked ("Moves files/folders to OS trash...") but I can't see the Trash folder in bash terminal.

I tryed to reach /home/user/.local/share/Trash/files but I stopped to share folder.

Any hint?

Thank you.
