Attempting to delete old Firmware Router Backups Configuration Files (i.e. Configurations Based on 4.60 and earlier), the following error messages occurs:


When I switched back to 4.65, I was able to delete 4.35 and earlier with no issues. I will have to switch back (Reboot on Standby Partition 4.65) again to delete these configuration files.

    It does not solve the problem with 5.31 (WK31 or not?), but worth a try: renaming the backups with short and letters only name (+.conf at the end) make files deletable?

    Hi @SierraTech

    Not sure if the name of the config file is too complicated. Could you share the config file and its name to us via private message? Besides, you might rename the config file and delete it, as below:  
    STEP1. Rename the config file.  

    STEP2. Remove it.


    STEP3. Press "Yes" to remove it.

    May I know your config file name whether including “()” parentheses? If so, please rename it, and then you can delete this config file. Besides, the file name format cannot be named with “()” parentheses on 5.31 firmware(as the below example) due to avoiding some injection CLIs towards our ZySH daemon and causing some unexpected problems. Sorry for your inconvenience.
