It’s a shared folder; the owner is not you, you just have view permission; it won’t occupy your drive space, so chill;

that… is not the point though.
even after revising everything twice and scoring high on the group mock test
again and again seeing this is giving anxiety. wink

better to get rid of it, BEFORE it becomes a full blown ‘panic attack’.

can try https://www.guidingtech.com/fix-google-drive-wont-delete-files-issue/ whatever it takes. biggrin

check in your connected apps/sites to see whether you have given permission to some app/site related to this folder.

How, if at all, would it matter (assuming it is even possible to do so when one is not even the owner …nor has much of those rights assigned by the owner)?

and in so far as i recollect https://myaccount.google.com/permissions this “app permissions” is only about the ‘Google authenticated login’ feature on third party sites.
So, is there something else too (like something intrinsic to Google cloud storage/Drive)?
if so, then maybe i am unawares😔.
