View Files in the Trash Bin

Folders and files deleted from any drive type are moved to the Trash bin, where they are retained until permanently removed. You can view and manage the contents of the Trash bin at any time. Items that are no longer needed can be permanently deleted to free up storage and maintain better file organization.

Note: File preview is available only for formats supported by your browser, typically image files and PDFs.
