write permissions set, but still can't delete - damageinc86 - 2024-08-04
I've added a series to jellyfin, and although there are no files with the designation of specials,...no specials folder,...and not even the word special in any episode title,....jellyfin has added a "specials" category, with nothing inside of it. So I tried to delete it and was told that Jellyfin doesn't have write access. So I went to the folder and enabled full control to every user of the PC (there's only one non-admin user). Even after a computer restart and server restart, jellyfin will not delete this empty specials category. Is there any way to get this deleted?

Do you have "Missing Episode Fetcher" enabled as a metadata source in the library settings?

Apparently yes. I disabled it. I saw your comment on similar threads about having to re-import a library. Thanks!
