Unable to delete File - Please check your permissions

Hi everyone. Sorry to revive this topic, but I’m having this problem.

I read all the conversation from start to finish.

My considerantios are:

  • I CAN reproduce this anytime I want.

  • If @sa2000 or any other Plex Team Mermber wants I can provide supervised access to my server using TeamViewer to demonstrate the problem.

  • I can do any other test you want me to. I’m a Systems Engineer and I can do advanced investigations or research.

  • It happens to me on Movies type libraries.

  • My Plex logs and Open Files View info can be found here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/svghuvioykz7uyc/AABxJo4Hp_lU3llaAVE3lj0wa?dl=0

  • It happens to me using Android TV (Shield TV 2017) and Android SmartPhone (Galaxy S9+).

  • It does NOT happen using the Plex Web Client. I CAN delete files without a problem using the web Plex Client. Logs provided for both cases.

  • My PMS Version is Version 1.14.1.5488 as of Nov 26, 2018.

  • I’m running Windows 10 Pro with all updates applied.

  • My client apps are all up to date. If necessary I can provide version numbers.

This now is important as I didn’t see anybody talking about it. To workaround the problem I do the following (This only works on Plex TV - Shield TV):

  • Stop playing the file.
  • Go up 2 levels in client navigation. (So, from Movie Title, I go up to All Movies in my Selected Library, then I go up to Home Screen.
  • Then I navigate back to the Movies Library, and then to the Movie itself.
  • Now I click delete. The file isn’t deleted yet.
  • I click mark as Played/Unplayed.
  • Now it sesms that the app crashes because it is like the App is loading itself again.
  • If I go to the movie and try to delete, now it deletes fine and I’m moved from the Movie screen to the Movies Library listing.

I provided log to this procedure too.

[EDIT}
I made a video showing how the workaround actually works: https://youtu.be/5DXcRBKCsKw

Hope I hear of you soon.

Best regards,
