# Dir not empty

 * [2 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dir-not-empty/)
 * I did a backup and recovery which worked. But the next time I tried a backup 
   I got this error message and it stopped…
 * PHP event: code E_WARNING: rmdir(/home2/scovclay/public_html/wp-content/newfold-
   page-cache): Directory not empty (line 107, wp-content/plugins/bluehost-wordpress-
   plugin/vendor/newfold-labs/wp-module-performance/includes/functions.php) (Aug
   30 11:35:08)
 * I did reinstall and cleared the setup. But got the same result. How do I clear
   this condition?
 * Thanks, Robert

 * Hi
 * This is just a warning and so will not stop the backup. You would be OK to leave
   this as it is. It’s simply telling you that the newfold-page-cache folder is 
   not empty.

 * I know it said “warning”. But, it does stop the backup (because of an error) 
   and reschedules it for an hour later.

 * can’t seem to add an image. But the status bar states… “waiting until scheduled
   time to retry because of errors”
