Hi Shlimmm,

As mentioned above, when trying to delete scanned pdf files in the app, you are receiving error ' file was unable to be deleted", is that correct?

Could you let us know if you are connected to the Internet using Wi-Fi or mobile data?

If using Wi-Fi, switch to mobile data and try deleting scanned files.

Make sure, you have "Allow cellular data usage" option turned on under Preferences. More info here: App Settings — Adobe Scan Help

Let us know how it goes.
