Can I lock my files somehow to avoid deleting them by accident?

Can I lock my files somehow to avoid deleting them by accident?

Hello

I am very clumsy and was wondering if there was a way to make files read only or lock them so I can’t accidentally delete them from the App.

Thanks!

No, that's not possible for your own files.
