How to turn off notification "Because it's online-only it won't be moved to your Recycle bin"
Does someone know, how to turn off this annoying notification?
"Delete xxx.xxx? Because it's online-only it won't be moved to your Recycle bin"?

Hey there bigsky - how are you today?
I moved your post under this thread as your inquiry echoes the OP's query and to keep things neat around our Community.
I double checked this internally and when it comes to the Smart Sync notifications and the option to disable them, this not possible I'm afraid.
This specific type of notifications is a failsafe in order to save our users from un-necessary deletion/changes and cannot be disabled.As for your consequent inquiry, again this is not possible; to disable those notifications beforehand.
At this point, I'd like to thank you for your feedback - I will log this with the team as a feature request.I know this isn't what you wanted to hear but I hope it helps to some extent. Please let me know if you have anything to add or ask; I'll be happy to follow up!

i did it is just that your interface for proposing new features is so cumbersome !
to be honest I believe I have suggested it in the right place but I am not even sure it works and already spent enough time trying to do so for something that should be pretty obvious for any normal user.
I am quite frustrated by that especially being a loyal customer since more or less the beginning especially since your competitors seem much more seemless
