Recycle Bin

The Recycle Bin is a place for files and documents to be stored before they are permanently deleted from the system. With the Recycle Bin turned on, any file or document deleted from the system is only moved to the Recycle Bin. From the Recycle Bin, files and documents can be restored or deleted permanently.

Users with the Empty File Recycle Bin or Empty Document Recycle Bin rights can use the Recycle Bin.

You can access the Recycle Bin from the Navigation menu.
