Re: Locked files on USB sticks in Linux Mint 19.3

Ah, that's related simply to the permissions - if you can't write to a file, then you can't delete it either.  One can think of deleting as a kind of writing;  one is doing something to the file, and one needs the appropriate permission for that.

Hope that helps.
