Public bug reported: ENVIRONMENT: krillin ubuntu-rtm/14.09-proposed build 13. mtp-server 0.0.4+14.10.20140827-0ubuntu1 Windows 8.1
SUMMARY: It is not possible to delete high level folders over MTP using Windows 8.1 PRE-REQUISITE: 1) Ensure there are music files on the Ubuntu device. Folder structure should be artist/album/tracks STEPS: 1) Connect Ubuntu device to Windows 8.1 over USB 2) Browse to the music folder on the MTP device and try to delete an artist folder containing sub-folders and files EXPECTED RESULT: 1) Ubuntu device is recognised as MTP device 2) Folder and sub-folder/tracks should be deleted ACTUAL RESULT: The operation freezes and it is not possible to delete the high level folder. If the files are selected directly from the sub-directory, it is then possible to delete them. The problem occurs when trying to delete from a higher level parent directory. Windows displays error "[folder name] could not be deleted. The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected". ** Affects: mtp (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: New ** Tags: rtm14 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1365004 Title: Win 8.1: MTP cannot delete folders To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mtp/+bug/1365004/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
