Same on Fedora KDE Spin.

Also, when I try to delete a folder, I get error "Creating folders is not supported with protocol trash".

SUMMARY

I got an NTFS data drive mounted at "/media/data", where I had deleted a few things.
I tried to empty Dolphin's trash folder as follows

1. entering the "trash:" folder
2. selecting all files by "Ctrl + A"
3. Hitting "Delete" on the keyboard

Dolphin printed an error:  
```
Changing the attributes of files is not supported with protocol trash
```

and Journalctl logged
```
Sep 26 20:21:08 kioslave5[14425]: kf.kio.slaves.trash: Directory "/media/data/.Trash-1000" exists but didn't pass the security checks, can't use it
```

The last log line appears also (several times), when clicking on "Empty Trash" in the context menu of the Trash Folder instead. However, here the files are indeed deleted.

It'd be great if the first way also worked as expected.

Comment 3 benedikt.keppner 2022-10-06 09:07:41 UTC
Same thing in Manjaro KDE! "Creating folders is not supported with protocol trash" feels like an unexpected behaviour when hitting del key in dolphin... Makes sense that shift del works since it usually skips trash then, but maybe call out an warning when deleting from trash with del...
Comment 4 Gautier 2022-10-06 20:21:58 UTC
Same thing on NixOS unstable with dolphin 22.08.1
On my local disk or on NFS.
Comment 5 Petrov Egor 2022-10-16 15:59:58 UTC
Updated to Plasma 5.26. Nothing changed, bug still reproduces

these appear when pressing delete key to delete a file in trash

I am experiencing this bug on Manjaro.
If I select a file in trash and press the delete key, a window will pop up saying "Changing the attributes of files is not supported with protocol trash" and a Dolphin notification will appear in the bottom right saying it's moving the file I am trying to delete to trash. Pressing retry repeats the error and canceling makes the file not get deleted.
If I select a folder in trash and press the delete key, a message on the top of the Dolphin window will say "Creating folders is not supported with protocol trash" and the folder won't be deleted.
If I right click the file/folder and click delete, then it will work as expected.

Someone said here they have a NTFS drive attached, I don't know if this is related to the bug, but I also do.

FWIW, I don't have a NTFS drive mounted and the issue still occurs.
Comment 8 popov895 2023-01-06 22:44:37 UTC
Any work on this? Maybe it's a KIO issue?
Comment 9 kde 2023-02-08 15:03:25 UTC
I'm getting this as well, with regular files deleted (moved to trash) off of a local ext4 disk.

I'm pretty confused, because I'm still experiencing the issue after KIO update to 5.104.

Hmm, it's working for me. This means your issue is something subtly different; can you please submit a new bug report for it?
