for the info Maik. In all my years of using DigiKam this is the

We had 2 bugs here in the past that could produce this behavior:
<br>
1. Custom renaming enabled, but no string entered.
<br>
2. Renaming with date metadata, but no date in the metadata of
the images.

So I cancel the delete operation , and then the file are then

was on hold

I can see these in file explorer but they don't show in

delete all

of the 'odd' files?
