As a first step I suggest that you run a file system check on the additional filesystems (when unmounted).

ok but my file system is working well .

the only things not working is the trash .
the problem with trash is encountered with multiple file systeme on multiple disks .

i do a fsck -fyv on all partition ext4 format monthly .

i ' ve done a fsck of all partitions ( ext4 ) and no errors was found .

i' ve exactly same problem with trash on Linux Mint 21 .

Tested with ubuntu 20.04 and all works fine . so this problem is only with new ubuntu version .

Others persons have same bug on their ubuntu 22.04.X and it works correctly on ubuntu 20.04.x

You could try checking with trash-cli whether deleting (and restore or full-delete) works from command line, or throws an error message that then can be chased further.

Can you help with this problem?
