    Hello!

    I want to delete old media library. I have deleted from dashboard --> libraries and I don't see them there but I see them on Home windows. When I multi select and delete them I am getting error as seen in attached image.

    What rights are needed to folder? Please help!

    So when you go into the dashboard and manage a library and remove from there that doesn't delete the folder it just removes it from Jellyfin. (or is supposed to anyway...)

    As for the image it's saying your files are set to read only, can you just delete the files in windows explorer bypassing Jellyfin? And then try a rescan.
