## Description

**As** a user   
**I want to** delete project folders during a project deletion  
**so that** OpenProject's files on Nextcloud is in a clean state and no orphans (files or directories) are hanging around.

**Acceptance criteria**

  - After a project deletion an active automatic project folder have to be deleted.
      - Automatically managed project folders that were hidden during project\_folder\_mode changes have to be removed as well. Note: The data about them is saved in `last_project_folders` database table.
  - An event to trigger project folder sync is thrown.
