How to remove photos to the trash in Tahoe 26,2

I have the LRC version 15,1,1 and Camera Raw 18,1  the Imac runs Tahoe 26,2.  All my photo files are stored on a external HD ( all my other files docs music etc are also on other external HDs) When I wan to remove some photos to the Trash I now get an screen telling me that those files are on a volumethat does not support Trash ! And I get the choice either to delete them permanently or “cancel”… But before the last updates LRC this question was not asked, and the files went directly to the TRASH. So that if needed you could put them back to their original storage place What is very useful should you have trashed some files by mistake.  And I do have all the reading and writing authority on that external HD. 

Is this just an issue ? Am I doing something wrong or ….is their something to fixed..

Thanks for letting me know 

best regards  Willy

    This is a known issue, although it is unclear what causes it. It has nothing to do with MacOS Tahoe however, because this goes back a long time already. What often seems to work is creating a new folder on that drive (in the Finder) and then deleting it again (in the Finder). Do indeed search for the thread.

    This has been discussed many times. Please search the forums for “volume that does not support trash”.
