    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!
