Empty folder delete

[spazhead]

Hi all! New to filebot and first post and first issue I can not find a solution for myself on this forum.

When I rename and move TV shows, old empty folder gets deleted all the time

but when I rename and move Movies, old empty folders never get deleted and yes the folder is empty

Wondering if there is a setting I have to enable for movies to delete empty folders after rename and move

running
filebot 4.7.9
windows 10

Thanks for any help!

The same "delete left behind empty folders" is executed irregardless of what files your processing. There's probably something different. Maybe hidden files. Maybe different file structure / file paths. Maybe some files in use by some program (and thus can't be deleted at the time) while others are not. Maybe permissions. Maybe something else.

Same here... thought it was totally empty after, have to go delete folders manually. Nothing inside, no hidden files or anything.

Renames my shows fine from
"Plex/TV Shows/Great Show/Season 3/great.show.3x01.82jklsdnv8hj4.mkv"
to
"Plex/TV Shows/Great Show/Season 03/Great Show - S03E01 - Spectacular Title.mkv"

...but leaves behind an empty /Season 3/ folder when it moved everything inside to /Season 03/

Turns out random thumbs.db file is a system file, not just hidden, so it doesn't show up by viewing hidden files alone, you may also have to show system files specifically.
