When using Restore Secondary Recycle Bin Files, common questions usually focus on restore location, permission status, and duplicate restore prompts; this FAQ includes 3 common questions and a glossary.
FAQ
Will the restored file return to its original location?
- Select the target file or folder in the secondary recycle bin.
- Click Restore and confirm the action.
- After the process finishes, the file returns to the folder where it was stored before deletion.
Will file permissions be restored after recovery?
- After the restore is complete, open the original location and check the access status.
- File permissions usually return to the state they had before deletion.
- If the original members have left or the team structure has changed, ask an administrator to review and adjust permissions.
What happens if two people try to restore the same file?
- When multiple people act at the same time, the system processes the actions in order.
- If the file has already been restored by another administrator, the later action shows that the file already exists.
- After that prompt appears, check the original location first and then decide whether any further action is needed.
