Random thoughts about using computers to do things. Presently using an Alienware Aurora Desktop (Windows 10) , a Dell XPS 13 developer edition (Ubuntu 19.04) a Dell Precision M2800 laptop (Windows 10), a Mac Mini, an Apple iPhone 7, an Apple iPad 6, a Samsung Galaxy S8, a Samsung Tab A (2018), an iPod Classic 160GB plus CD's, DVD's, USB keys, and zip disks everywhere. Enjoy learning computing with me.

I spent about two hours today cleaning up the trash on my eMac desktop. The problem is that some old files have been encrypted and then can not be deleted without first unlocking which takes a few mice clicks typically for each file or folder. The real problem is that I have about twenty copies of rotating monthly or weekly back ups still in the trash with these encrypted files still there. It is pain staking manual process but I am not sure how to unlock on the command line or with a script. I will send at least another two hours today doing this clean up.
