Hi,

flowa:
> Just another issue that I detected on 3.8 and already reported on 3.9 with Whisperback but didn't get an answer yet: Deleting a file on persistent storage will not release the memory. Looks like emptying the trash never works.


Indeed, that's a known issue since we've introduced the persistence
feature (https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/6254).

Some documentation was added a few years ago
(https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/7083) to
https://tails.boum.org/doc/encryption_and_privacy/secure_deletion/
→ look for "Trash" there.
