use winscp to delete your files

[mbucari1]

or you can do it through the FTP client (but don't use filezilla if there are more than 100, it is inefficient with sftp)

rm thenameofthefile
rmdir thenameofthedirectory
rm -r thenameofthedirectory (this delete the directory and the files)

Same trouble here.

What's location of Trash in WinSCP?

[redMonster]

If you want to know the location of trash in leeware, there is a trash folder when you login through SFTP to your VPS. Go to /root/.local/share/trash after logging in.

Thank you very much. That's what I was looking for.

Or...instead of deleting the torrent when you finished, select delete data + torrent.

Or...instead of deleting the torrent when you finished, select delete data + torrent.yep, that what I usually did :)

i just use the webui to delete the torrents.

Thanks. That confirms my checking that doing exactly that removes all data outright.

Good to know, I though I was getting some funny df info returned.

In fact, I was just reading it wrong.. :pinch:
