I deleted a large file (6 GB) located in my home directory but the free space is not increased.
I have tried looking the file in trash folder by typing cd ~/.local/share/Trash/files
but it's not listed there. I have tried running sudo apt-get clean
but the problem isn't solved. I have also tried sudo lsof +L1
to see if any other process are using it but it's not showing up there either.
Anyone have any suggestions?
sudo fdisk -l
?df -lh
to see a list of your partitions including the free space. Even if the file is hidden (starts with a dot .), you should see it in the Nautilus Trash (also called Rubbish Bin).fdisk
will tell me what partition is the one in question/
