h1. Resolving Shared Folder Issues in Nextcloud

If a shared folder is no longer available in Nextcloud but still appears for a user and they can't delete it, you can try the following steps to resolve the issue.

Change Directory to the Nextcloud Installation:

Before running any Nextcloud command-line tools, you typically need to navigate to the Nextcloud installation directory. You can do this using the cd command:

<pre>

cd /var/www/html/nextcloud

</pre>

Replace "/var/www/html/nextcloud" with the actual path to your Nextcloud installation.

Run Nextcloud Command-Line Tools:

Once you are in the Nextcloud installation directory, you can run Nextcloud's command-line tools using the appropriate user (usually "www-data" or "www"). For example:

To trigger a files scan to refresh the file list:

<pre>

sudo -u www-data php occ files:scan --all

</pre>

To list shares:

<pre>

sudo -u www-data php occ sharing:list

</pre>

To delete a share by its ID:

<pre>

sudo -u www-data php occ sharing:delete <share_id>

</pre>

Remember to replace <share_id> with the actual share ID you want to delete.
