Is it safe to delete empty folders in metadata?

[MarauderEMBY 17]

Okay so I am doing some file and folder structure maintenance for my libraries and was curious. I scan my directories with TreeSize and RED (Remove Empty Directories) to see filetypes that should not be there and after that I scan with RED to see about deleting empty folders... Long story to a short question BUT...

I decided to just go ahead and scan my Emby metadata and 'others' folder. I found a total of 370 empty directories... as shown in the attachment... Was wondering if it was going to be okay to delete them and vacuum the database afterwards for anyone who can answer that question...

Sorry if this is duplicated, I did search for the topic and didn't find anything specifically about it.

HI, yes, empty folders can be deleted.

You should probably run the Scan Metadata Folder task after cleaning up the empty folders, just in case.

Oh no I see over 52,000+ empty folders.  But this is a really old install.

That many you might actually get some space back LOL...
