Have you considered removing the entire folder rather than individual files? In Linux, use: rm -rf <directory_name>. Deleting a file only clears its location from the directory structure, leaving it on the storage device until the OS copies it elsewhere.

You might want to save your data by moving everything onto the storage unit except the damaged files. It’s more time-consuming but ensures those files won’t be duplicated. Clearing the device and restoring from the backup could help. This approach may fail if the drive is used as a boot device, because some systems don’t copy boot files directly. However, the boot area can be recreated using an installer. If needed, you may need to reinstall the operating system from a fresh backup.

I don't have access to backed-up versions of files.

They used a tool to check the drive sectors and fix issues. I noted it because I mentioned it. Have you executed the trim command?
