11.1. 64bit
MAC OS 10.15.6

When my mirror files needs to be deleted,the FreeFileSync shows Unable to put file in recycle bin.
COCOA ERROR 512.

SO ,I have to delete it manually to back up the files properly

This is not the case with the main hard disk, but with other hard disks

It's very inconvenient. I don't know what to do

SORRY ,My version is in Chinese,I don't know if my expression is accurate.

In short, this software does not have permission in some hard disks. How should I set it

Can you copy and paste the text? Or better: set the language to English?

May be that the software does not have administrator rights to delete files on this disk?

There are several hard disks in my computer, some of them are OK, some are not

CocoaError 512 == NSFileWriteUnknownError == "Could not write, for unknown reasons."

Hm...

It's a bit of a wild shot, but maybe theres an underlying error available to report instead. Do you get a different error message with the following version?

Maybe the trash folder on this volume got somehow corrupted. I suggest checking it outside of FreeFileSync and see if there's a problem with it.

Sorry,I made a mistake before.
Successful and failed on the same physical hard disk
Different partitions
Successful partition in exFAT
Failed on NTFS partition

Maybe that's the problem?

But NTFS partitions were available in previous versions

Can you sent me the Donation Edition version on 2019.04.18 ?
