Unable to delete files and folders with tilde (~)
I have a folder with a few ("torrent")files on the Readynas which it seems to be impossible to get rid of. The files in question have one common property; their names all contain a tilde / "~" . ...
If you can ssh into the NAS change to the directory holding the file and remove it manually like this:
Make sure you add the ./ before the name of file
cd /tmp/location_of_file
rm ./~this-is-a-file-with-tilde-in-front-of-it
Make sure you add the ./ before the name of file
