    Default Couldn't Remove Directory:Failure!

    I'm using fugu. The folder it empty, but it won't let me delete it.
    The folder does say it has a size of 102B, but there is nothing in it.

    Any ideas?

    Try copying a new file into the folder, then delete that file, then try and remove the directory folder.

    I don't know if you tried this but go to the menu and click the SFTP/Show Hidden Files command to ensure that all files are displayed. Delete any file found then delete the folder.

    you have to delete all files in folder before you can delete the folder itself, that is what I did.

    Hi. I've been trying to use Fugu to delete some of my apps but even though it always seems to work through the computer (the files look like they've been deleted successfully) the applications that had been deleted are is still on the phone. I've tried restarting the phone, removing the SIM card but the apps are still there and when I reconnect to Fugu the files I deleted are still there! I have to delete them via fugu because my installer won't launch because my apps take up too much space. What am I missing? Is there a way to reload the homescreen so the changes will save?
