Not sure if I've given you anything actually helpful, but perhaps it's a place to start looking?

Hm, does the file circled in blue not disappear after you save your document with the new image? Does this file you cannot delete have any properties (right mouse click - properties)? Is it used in any other file (right mouse click - properties - tab Used in)?

Hi there,

Could it be that there is still a document stored in the folder you want to delete (looks like it is on your screenshot). Try first deleting all content of your folder and then try again deleting the folder. As far as I know, only empty folders can be deleted.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Karin
