Prevent Nautilus / Nemo from creating .Trash-1000 folder in mounted devices
Prevent Nautilus / Nemo from creating .Trash-1000 folder in mounted devices
How to I stop ubuntu making .Trash folder in each deviceHow does the Trash Can work, and where can I find official documentation, reference, or specification for it?Why is a .Trash-1000 hidden folder created when I try to delete files from a mounted MicroSD card?Trash folder in the wrong location with bound partitionsDeleted Items not appearing in Trash folder. Stuck in .TRASH-1000Impossible to trash files from a folder which is a symbolic link to a NTFS partition folderIs it possible to have multiple trash cans for seperate partitions in the unity launcher?Network Trash showing on my desktopUbuntu xenial File Manager trash not workingCan not move files to trash from ext4 partitionNautilus crashed - Black desktop and can't access any folder
Both Nautilus and Nemo create hidden folders called .Trash-1000 in any mounted device, apparently to managed their Trash folder. This is mighty confusing in network drives that are mounted by other users, that may be using other operating systems or programmes that do not recognise this folder as a trash bin.
Moreover, this folder expands with the number of files deleted and can not be erased from Ubuntu:
$ sudo rm -rf ./.Trash-1000
rm: cannot remove './.Trash-1000/files': Directory not empty
To free space in such mounted volumes the .Trash-1000 folder must be deleted from a different system.
Is there any way to prevent Nemo or Nautilus from creating this folder in network drives? I can naturally simply not use them, but they are handy in many situations.

After looking at Nautilus's source code and Michael Stumpfl's answer it becomes clear that trash folder creation, is something hard-coded in Nautilus's source code itself and is part of how libgio works - the library behind file manipulations in Gtk/GNOME applications. Therefore disabling such behavior is currently not possible without recompiling either the file manager itself or altering source code of the library ( which I wouldn't recommend doing, since other applications rely on it, so changes may affect other applications' behavior ).
Probably the best solution is to propose a feature request to Nautilus developers and wait until it is fixed. One could also resort to permanent deletion of files via Shift+Delete short cut or using command-line utilities such as mv (move to user's trash folder on / filesystem) or rm. Otherwise - switch to using different file manager for the time being.
