I ran into bugs and complications when trying to use full disk encryption and encrypting my home folder and I am less concerned about physical security and more so about online security.
Therefore, I would like to use encfs to encrypt a folder containing my sensitive materials. Before I do so, I tested using encfs using the example outlined on the encfs official documentation page.
To practice, I created both example folders mentioned in the link above, ~/visible and ~/.encrypted. If I needed to, how do I delete the ~/.encrypted folder? This question is almost answered on this page. However, it is not clear what this statement means: "After that, only the rootdir will remain. You can then simply remove the emptied (good idea to check first if it's really empty) folder ~/encfs/.encrypted."
In sum, how do I remove the rootdir?
