fs.remove/fs.removeSync

[yosef-123]

i have been able to use ths successfully in deleting huge folders but it dosnt delete .asar files and all its parent folders
ps it works on the rest of the directory just skips this file

Platform? Node.js version? fs-extra version? Are you using fs-extra from within an electron app, or in plain Node.js?

[yosef-123]

windows 10, 12.19.00, 9.1.0(latest),yes but uncompiled and compield
aka also doesnt work when i do npm start which runs 'electron .'

[RyanZim]

Hmm, not sure what the issue is here. Have you verified you don't have a file permissions issue?

[RyanZim]

Also, what's your electron version? This may be connected to electron/electron#28195.

[yosef-123]

6.14.8
and i dont think its cunnected becuse althogh i dont know so much about file securety im able to manually delete it.

[yosef-123]

ps. windows thinks there is full access to read write delete ect...

[RyanZim]

Honestly, I'm stumped here. Is it possible for you to create a reduced test case of this bug?

[yosef-123]

Looks like you code wasn't included. Another name for a reduced test case is a minimal, complete, verifiable example; see more here: https://ibug.io/blog/2018/06/minimal-complete-verifiable-example/

i redid different types of files ect and looked through windows security and all access is same as all other files in the node_modules folder that get deleted yet this doesnt then i tried writing a .asar file and it got deleted so its not a bug simply for this file not all .asar so sorry for bothering you. ps this is my .asar file thar doesnt delete (if you want it)

Unfortunately, I'm clueless here, and I have little chance of being able to debug this. For security reasons, I cannot download your .asar file, and you said the problem is specific to this file, so I'm at a dead-end here. Does fs.unlink work to remove this specific file?
