Deleting files

Plex Media Server

Server Version#: 1.24.5.5173
Player Version#: 4.70.0

Hi guys !
Since some weeks, when I delete files from my system and scan my library on Plex, the deleted movies appears with a red bin on them, and I have to manually delete them.
Before that, it was deleted automaticaly.
Idk when it changed as I don’t read the changelogs, but I haven’t found how to restore this autodelete while scan in the settings.
Is this still possible ?
Thanks a lot !

You probably disabled Settings > [Server Name] > Library > Empty trash automatically after every scan.

Personally I recommend to stick with that in order to avoid the accidental deletion of manual edits with a bad scan/update (e.g. if HDD isn’t spinning up fast enough).

Exactly !
