Hi

So in the Recently Deleted section of the Files app all the old file thumbnails and names still show up. I constantly select and delete all but whenever I go back there they still show up. The files itself are gone and cannot be recovered but for some reason the metadata/ thumbnails and file names still show up there no matter how often I keep deleteing it.

Why is this happening? How can I fix it?

Are you using iCloud to back them up or anything like that?
