This may have been going on for a while, but I have only noticed a few weeks ago.
There are some folders inside the Downloads
folder (i.e. subfolders and subsubfolders) which originally contained documents meant for a particular period and thus were named after year and month (e.g. 2014-05
).
They contained documents which I have read in apps like Moon+ Reader.
I deleted those (sub)subfolders many times now, but they keep coming back.
My first hunch was: "oh, somehow Moon+ Reader must have registered them in its DB and keeps recreating them". So I decided to use the rudimentary file browser included in that app and removed the folders there. Yet, after every reboot they keep reappearing.
How can I track down the culprit? Is Moon+ Reader perhaps known to behave like that?
