We have to delete this Folder because some of our External Customers gets Virus Errors and Warnings every time about this Folder.

But its empty, and guaranteed no Virus.

We have to delete this Folder because some of our External Customers gets Virus Errors and Warnings every time about this Folder.

But its empty, and guaranteed no Virus.

we have an Linux Debian Server in our House as Developer Machine.
One of our developers has created accidental an Folder Called Ð?Ð¾Ð²Ð°Ñ? Ð¿Ð°Ð¿ÐºÐ°

How can I Remove this folder.

I have tried Several things such as Wildcard, Delete via inode Number, Remove via find, but nothing works.

All i get is

No such file or Directory

Here is my Complete Screen from my Removal Tests

You got several times is a directory .. meaning the directory was found. It was just not removed because you forgot the -r parameter. Try rm -r Ð* again.

You already have a couple of instances where the directory name is properly escaped and passed correctly to the rm command but those result in an error message, for instance:

rm: cannot remove './Ð'$'302235''Ð¾Ð²Ð°Ñ'$'302217'' Ð¿Ð°Ð¿ÐºÐ°': Is a directory

The rm command without any arguments won't remove directories. Try rmdir or use the -r argument for rm
