Description
### Description
When attempting to delete files in a write-protected partition, **Files** seems to try deleting each individual file before ultimately reporting an error. This behavior can be misleading.
### Steps To Reproduce
1. Enable write protection (e.g., using the physical switch on an SD card).
2. Use **Files** to permanently delete a folder on this partition.
3. Observe that the progress bar moves slowly as if it's genuinely deleting, but eventually, it displays a deletion failure message.
### Requirements
- When writing to or deleting content in a write-protected partition, an immediate error should be reported instead of attempting to delete each file.
- When file operations fail, additional error information should be provided.
