SD File List includes deleted files

I'm new user of OctoPi running on Raspberry Pi 4 model B 4GB.
(OctoPrint 1.3.12 running on OctoPi 0.17.0)
After connect to printer (Prusa I3 MK3S) the file list includes all deleted files on the SD Card.

Is it possible to get rid of these "files"?

These files are not deleted but moved to the trash can. Maybe you should empty the trash can on the printer.

Hi Jandar
Thank's for the answer.
But why show the files from the Trash can on the Printers SD Card?
These files are not shown on the printers own display.

The trash can is a normal directory not very different from all other directories. The special handling of it is done by the UI of the printer.

How does one get to the 'Trash can' on Octopi? Is it possible to restore a deleted file from there?

If you see these files with trash names you can download them. Whether the printer uses a trash can is up to its firmware.

There's no 'trash can' for locally uploaded files, this seems to be some special firmware that has implemented it, you probably don't have it.

How about a feature in Octopi that allows users to mark a folder as the "Trashcan", then have a flag to hide it... I am sitting here, remote to my printer, looking at a list of 20 trash items, and 2 files I have uploaded. It feels like there is always loads of trash in the way.
