recycle.bin | Recycle bin for unRAID V6.4 | Development Tools library

I have a PowerShell query.

I have the below 2 string arrays. What I want to be able to do is to return only those entries from $RecycleBinPaths that do not begin with all the entries from $ExcludeRecycleBinsPathWildCards (i.e. Wildcard pattern match)

The problem

I want to merge a dictionary onto the end of a list that I am generating using a For loop. It seems to work but the problem, is that the curly braces stay around the dictionary instead of merging with the list. Its kinda hard to explain so here are two examples:

This is what I want (sorry, you have to scroll to the right to see the path key value):

The Problem:

I am trying to turn a string into a dictionary, so I can try to merge it with my other dictionary. However when I try to use the eval() command, it gives an error unexpected character after line continuation character (, line 1)

The Goal:

My goal is to add the path of my mp4s to my metadata dictionary so I can then insert the data into sqlite all in one shot.

Here is my code to get the paths I want:

This was originally a question about why I couldn't download anything to my displaced Downloads folder. The issue solved itself after rebooting the computer a second time (no idea why). I decided to leave it here anyway since it contains useful information to people who want to redirect their files on a mounted volume.

I was right at first, there was indeed an issue with my dual boot. The problem was that sometimes, I couldn't write anything on my NTFS partition when I was booted on Ubuntu. The reason for that was that Windows hadn't properly disconnected from the partition. More info about that issue here, but basically it happens when Windows isn't completely turned off before Ubuntu starts. The quick fix is to remove the Windows log file : $ sudo ntfsfix /dev/your-NTFS-partition (for me it was : $ sudo ntfsfix /dev/sda4). Then you simply unmount and remount the NTFS volume and you should be able to write in it, no reboot needed.

I made my first dual boot yesterday, following this tutorial. I partitioned my drive in 3 volumes, 1 for Windows 10, 1 for Ubuntu 20.04, and 1 for my files (named Storage), that I mounted at /media/storage. The only thing that I did differently from the walkthrough is that I used symlinks to redirect my downloads and documents folders to the mounted volume instead of changing the paths in /etc/fstab. I used this video to learn how to work with symlinks.

I had an issue with the Trash not working in the mounted volume, that I solved by adding uid=1000 in the mount options in /etc/fstab as advised here (I used udisks). Everything seemed to be working just fine after that.

This morning I tried to download a file with Google Chrome into the Downloads folder (which is now at /media/storage/Downloads) and I got an error "Failed - insufficient permissions". Same thing happened with Firefox. Both browsers download without issue if I use my home folder to save the file.

I read here that :

As a normal user you don't have the right to write anywhere except your home directory and its subdirectories, /tmp (the directory for temporary files) and the subdirectories of /media/"yourUsername" into which media you've connected to the computer are mounted.

Does this mean that I should have mounted my volume at /media/username/storage instead of /media/storage ? If I changed the mount path now in /etc/fstab, would this fix the issue or just mess everything up? Is there something else I'm missing ? What is the best, most sustainable way to fix this ?

I just realized that I have some lock icons on my symlinks folders. They can't have been there yesterday, because everytime I try to modify anything in there, the system throws an error "Read-only file system". I know that I was able to add and delete files from there yesterday.

Here is the output of /media/storage$ ls -l :

The problem

I am trying to access my tag_dict dictionary variable outside of a for loop so I can use that dictionary to learn how to insert that data into sqlite. (First Sqlite project)

If I print the tag_dict inside of the for loop it gives me all the data.

Here is the code:

The problem

(I had to delete and remake the question again beacause someone edited my question so weird that I couldn't edit it to get any help :( )

I have been looking into this for hours and hours and can't even make 1 database at all. I have looked at tons of examples but all of them involve making the dictionary in the program. I need to find out how to take an already existing dictionary and turn it into a sqlite database.

I have tried so much but have not gotten close and I don't know where I can go to understand this concept. I have looked on stack overflow but every single question involving this has the dictionary made from scratch I need an example that shows the dictionary as a variable only.

I keep hitting random error after random error with no luck.

Here is the code:

The problem

I am trying to convert an object into a dict for sqlite database creation. I am using an app called "tinytag" to pull the metadata from my mp4 on my computer.

When I run the function, I get a list of data that looks like key pairs but they are an object. I have tried to convert the variable into a dict using some code I found online but its pulling an error that I am not sure of.

Here is my code:

The Problem:

I am trying to find a way to either convert a string, an object, or a text file into a dictionary so I can try to turn it into a sqlite database. (I apologize if I am going about this the wrong way. Feel free to recommend suggestions)

Currently I have a script which generates a list of all my mp4's metadata such as artists, song, album, year etc:

The history of this question lies in an earlier question I asked here

I am running this command to get the file hashes of all files in a given location, but I need to capture any that are missed or inaccessible.
