Description

Hello, and thank you guys for the app!

I'm using version 3.3.2 from the F-droid repository.
When I delete files from the SD card, the first file is deleted but displays and error message, and the other files are not deleted.
When moving multiple files to another folder, the files are copied but not removed.
This seems to be SD card related.

I'll do more testing.
