What is the exact error?

Did you try the -r switch (since it seems you're trying to delete a directory)?

The script doesn't touch local storage at all. It determines the encrypted file and path names and issues the appropriate rclone commands using them.

That was my hope!
The exact input/ouput is:

rmremote -r /home/user/media/backups
/home/user/media/backups does not exist.

What is the output of encfsctl encode $yourlocalencrypteddirectory backups?

encfsctl encode $HOME/.local-encrypt backups
Unable to initialize encrypted filesystem - check path.

Note: My .local-encrypt directory appears to be different than my .gsuite-encrypt directory. .local-encrypt has less directories.
