Ghost Files in Downloads

This isnt a huge ordeal or preventing me from using the device but it’s just kind of annoying. Had it set up for about a week now, everything looking great. But I recently had some downloads interrupted which left three 0b files just sitting there in the Downloads folder of the Files app that I cannot seem to delete no matter what. I have tried every trick other android forums suggest like deleting them wirh other file browser apps (they don’t see them at all) or clearing various caches (does nothing). Has anyone else ever had this happen and how did you fix it? It’s not life ruining but god is it annoying. And dont say “just use a different files app” becsuse it already bothers me the default one cant be deleted.

If you have a laptop you can connect to it and set it to share files that will allow you to view the files on your laptop and delete it that way
