Can't scrap all junk in my inventory.
I have a lot of junk in my inventory, nonetheless i can't scrap this in any workbench. Only few of them cant be scrap, last of them stay in inventory. O.e.: I have a metal spoon that I can't scrap for metal. Why?

Yeah that happens to me sometimes, I just store all junk in stash then take out the ones that didn't scrap automatically, then try scrapping it again at workbench, it seems to work

Bulk, and Items that you can store in Display cases, won't be scrapped automatically and require manual scrapping. This was added for that very reason, and so that people did not scrap Pure Flux, and Hardened Mass by accident.

When you are in the workbench, i assume you are just pressing (T) to scrap everything? On the top menu are the various types of items (weapons/amounr/notes/junk). Go to the junk tab and you can click on the items, it will tell you what is in them and you choose to scrap it or not from there.

That is working, but not for all junk. Everytime some junk left in inventory and can't be scrap, even manualy.

There are some items that wont auto scrap because it can be used as ingredients for something else, or quest objectives. You have to manually scrap those.

However, there is a bug (surprised?) where the cursor wont highlight it, and you have to leave the menu and come back.

I know that some items can't be scraped. But i see junk in my inventory (even some with materials) and when i go to workbench to scrap this i don't se this junk. Very strange.

When you go to a workbench to scrap junk you only see whats in your inventory. So if its in your stash you need to take it out if you want to scrap it.

It's weird, it won't auto scrap insect parts for me but it will auto scrap things that are used as components for crafting with no warning, like enhanced targeting cards or military grade circuit boards.

Insect parts are used for a daily quest. Military grade circuit boards and targeting cards are NOT used in any recipes.

I stand corrected, that one is a bug then and you can send them a support ticket. It's not supposed to scrap if its used for a quest or crafting item.

The insect parts are working as intended though and the others that don't scrap are intended.

Brian: Even if i have junk in my inventory (junk that can be scratch) i can only scratch some of them not all. I have tons of trash in my junk storage that i can't scratch (of course i try scratch them when i have it in my personal inventory).

Most of what you were showing like acid was ALREADY scrapped. They don't break down farther.
