how do I get rid of the many recovered-lost-folder's that I have on my iphone? There's probably 50-100 of them, and I want them gone.

I have many many of these folders on my iphone that start with recovered-lost-folder then a bunch of other numbers and letters.  I need to get rid of all of these folders but there doesn't appear to be a way to do so.  Please let me know how to get rid of them thanks.

@laurie2025 To delete numerous "recovered-lost-folder" items on your iPhone, open the Files app, navigate to the location of these folders (often in "On My iPhone" or "iCloud Drive"), tap the three-dot menu, choose Select, tap each folder, and then select Delete.
