Hi,

i had import some ENEX file to Joplin and sync them to the file system. There was images in the ENEX file. Later i remove all notes from Joplin and wait if the sync is complete. If i look in the filesystem i see many .md files with these content:

id: b515b3be110c2c994016b2f97bc91102
mime: image/png
filename: 
created_time: 2018-01-01T15:56:48.132Z
updated_time: 2018-01-01T15:56:48.132Z
user_created_time: 2018-01-01T15:56:48.132Z
user_updated_time: 2018-01-01T15:56:48.132Z
file_extension: 
type_: 4

It is possible that the meta data files for attachments not removed if the attachment is removed?

Yes this is a current limitation of the application - unused resources are not automatically deleted. It's on my to-do list though so it will be implemented at some point.
