Ah ok. If the web ui isn’t working then you may need to use uplink with the force parameter

Can not delete empty bucket again and again

The aws CLI forcibly delete a bucket by deleting every file in the bucket, then the bucket itself. It cannot delete a whole bucket at once by design. The Objects browser cannot delete non-empty buckets too. If you uploaded anything with a different encryption phrase and this phrase is lost, these objects would not be shown in the bucket with a different encryption phrase. In such a case you can list and remove these files only with uplink and --encrypted flag, or you can remove a whole bucke…

If you mean a prefix, not a bucket (i.e. sj://demo-bucket/folder), then you can use this method:

Delete nested directory (without S3 gateway)

You can use this command uplink ls --recursive sj://duplicatibackups/myfiles/ | sed -E 's/(.* ){4}//g' | xargs -P64 -Ifullname uplink rm "sj://duplicatibackups/fullname"
