Force Delete on Mac OS X
I had a couple of items stuck in my trash bin for about a week now. No matter how many times I tried to empty the trash bin or restart the computer, I got an error message saying the operation cannot be completed because the file was still in use! Do you have the same annoying issue?
Fear not! Because there is a way to force them to delete!
- Open the Terminal program. You can find this in the Utilities Folder.
- Type in rm -r .Trash/ to empty out the trash bin.
- Close all apps and restart computer!
I hope this helps!
