Bug description

Deleting a VirtualFile doesn't delete both the VirtualFile on Mac and the actual file on server but does a little crazy thing…

Steps to reproduce

  1. VirtualFiles [experimental] feature must be active
  2. The synchronisation starts and completes without any problems, except that the creation of some 300,000 1kb files with the extension '.nextcloud' in my ~/Nextcloud folder takes more than four hours.
  3. I would like to delete a file (both locally and on the server) so I move a virtualfile (.nextcloud) to the recycle bin and empty the bin

Expected behavior

Expected behavior
After emptying the recycle bin, files will be permanently deleted everywhere.

What happens
The actual file on server isn't deleted and a new instance of the virtual file is back in its original place again

Runaround
The only way to delete a file is Making it always available locally, then deleting it and emty the bin. No problem if the file is small but, in case it's a very large file, the operation is tedious

I forgot to say that I've never used the VirtualFiles feature before

Hi @sl-lebrit, this was described in #4474
The development of the Mac OS VFS client is still not finished so if you use the current client, you'll still encounter those glitches when virtual files mode is on.

Perhaps this issue can safely be closed and kept watch on #1337 and #5693 instead.
It won't be long (at least I hope so :-D )before we start getting beta releases of the Mac VFS client to test.

@sl-lebrit sorry I can't close it, I don't have such permissions, but you can close it for sure (your view should include the Close button).

Regards, Marco
