Research direction

Start by reviewing the attached screenshot and tracing the file-deletion flow in the Python application. The issue names no files, tests, or reproducible failure details, so first identify where deletion errors are caught and how their messages are presented. Done means the failure is reported with clearer, useful information and the relevant behavior is covered by a test if the project has one.
