Fail to empty trash folder on mac

Sometimes the trash folder is unable to empty for some reason. If it happens, using the below methods to empty it
1. click opt and shift key and right click the trash icon and then select secure empty trash
2. if that does not work, then open terminal, and type
chflags -R nouchg 
with a space after it. Then open trash folder in Finder and select all files and drag&drop files to the terminal to unlock the files
3. Repeat the step 1 again to empty the trash
