Delete All option doesn't work
‎27 Mar 2023 04:36 PM
So, I'm trying to delete 10 episodes of Mrs. Merton in one quick & easy go. I use the following process:
Recordings>Manage>Disk Space>scroll right & then down to Mrs. Merton>scroll right to Delete All & press>go to Confirm & press. Nothing happens. Mrs. Merton is still visible in the Disk Space section & on my recordings list.
I take a slightly different route:
Recordings>Manage>Disk Space>Scroll right & down to Mrs. Merton & press in order to select all episodes. S3 6 episodes & S4 4 episodes appear. I scroll right to Delete All & Confirm for S3 & do the same for S4. Again, nothing happens & all episodes are still visible in the Disk Space section & on my recordings list.
So what exactly is the point of Delete All in this area of Manage? And yes, I do know I could delete them all individually if I were to delete them from my Recordings list & then go to Recordings>Manage>Deleted & delete them individually from there, but that's a lot of clicks.
And yes, before anyone says it, I know I could delete them from my Recordings list & then leave them alone & they'll sort themselves out one day, but I'm one of those people ( & I know I'm not alone in this ) who likes to keep things tidy & not have a massive amount of deleted programmes sitting on their box, so please don't go down that route if you reply.
I was actually the person who put the idea forward on this forum in a special section for Sky Q ideas to have a Delete All button where it should be: Recordings>Manage>Deleted & then have a Delete All button. Unfortunately, the idea never came to fruition, despite being something that was clearly wanted by a lot of people going by the amount of Likes the idea received. Why we have a Delete All button in one place that doesn't work but can't have a Delete All button in a place where it would work beggars belief.
