Hi everyone, So I figured out the problem regarding the trash and my Time Machine backup. The solution is pretty simple actually, at least for me. Setting chflags to -R on any file will unlock it if it happens to be locked. So, in terminal, you can do: chflags -R nouchg <path of files> To have the path of the trash files or any file path in finder auto-filled in, you can simply drag it to the terminal. Believe it or not, with the finder, this works with VoiceOver’s drag and drop commands. I then emptied the trash and it successfully emptied. HTH.
