Hey cydneejo, thanks for your post.&nbsp;
Can you send me a screenshot of the confirmation box you receive?&nbsp;
I’d like to have a look for you.

Yes, of course.&nbsp;

Hey cydneejo, thanks for the screenshot!
Is this shared content, or do you use a Team plan on your end?&nbsp;
The notification you're seeing is because the file you're deleting is shared with other users.&nbsp;
The "Delete everywhere" message can be removed by checking the appropriate option within the dialogue box of the message. However, there currently isn't a way to entirely disable the specific notification that you are seeing there.
