Hi
Thanks for your interest in this problem.
I have looked in each folder from a terminal session and there is nothing with obviously 'odd'' filenames. There are some quite long filenames bit most of those have been there for a while (in some cases for at least 3 months):
eg
Transactions--600927-56296215--24-12-2022-24-01-2023.pdf
Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-6.1.22.vbox-extpack
appimagelauncher_2.2.0-travis995.0f91801.bionic_amd64.deb
'You'\''ve received an Amazon.co.uk gift certificate!.pdf'
the command:
find ~ -user root
returns no output :
ceejayemm@cmlaptop1:~
$ find ~ -user root
ceejayemm@cmlaptop1:~
$
The system disk / home partition appears to have lots of free space and as noted earlier I don't use any quota (that I know of:
$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev 3.8G 0 3.8G 0% /dev
tmpfs 786M 1.5M 784M 1% /run
/dev/sda2 439G 116G 301G 28% /
tmpfs 3.9G 52M 3.8G 2% /dev/shm
tmpfs 5.0M 12K 5.0M 1% /run/lock
/dev/sda1 253M 274K 252M 1% /boot/efi
Please let me know if I can provide any further information.
Thanks
Chris
