fish Deleted files re-appear

A mate has been trying to organise his hundreds of photos, and finds that as he deletes pictures he no longer wants, they simply copy themselves in the same folder.

He thinks I'm an expert who can help him

Can anyone out there help me keep up the pretence, and help me fix it?

Is he holding don the Ctrl key and clicking the pics with his mouse?

Sometimes if you do it this way you can miss a click and it will copy as you are selecting,

I hope he isn't qualified aircrew!!!!

If this is not the case, download and run Crap Cleaner and see how it clears out you files!
