I installed some software and I think afterwards I was navigating through CLI and noticed that some directories or some files in some directories had single quotation marks around the names. They don’t appear in the GUI. How do I get rid of them? Do I have to use a recursive command to delete the quotation marks for the entire file system?

I’ve actually had this problem a few times in the past but cannot recall why they happen nor what the solution was.

    I am impressed nobody called OP a noob and told him to “RTFM”. Good job y’all! Keep being a positive force.

      Somewhat surprisingly the fediverse has been much kinder for Linux learners than my experience everywhere else online the last decade :)
