I've just hit "delete" in a directory containing many files and folders. Cyberduck has gone through all of the files and folders and deleted the lot - apart from the directory itself, which it can't delete.

The error message is enclosed. (It's not a very helpful one).

Doing this deletion manually, I could see two hidden files in the directory (both placed there, I suspect, by Mac OSX using the Expandrive program). Viewing hidden files with Cyberduck, I deleted these files, then the directory itself deleted quite happily.

Hope that's useful. Long-time user (both donated and purchased) - keep up the good work.

I have tried to replicate the issue (by also mounting a test directory in the Finder) but cannot. Any file in a directory should get deleted prior the attempt to remove the directory itself. Do you know the names of the hidden files you had to delete manually?
