The Recycle Bin
Applies to Shield Vault only
When files are deleted from Shield's shared storage, they go to the Recycle Bin first — so an accidental delete is easy to undo. This page lists deleted items from Head Burrow and Common Burrow (your private and shared storage areas).

Select the deleted files you want back and press Recover Selected Files. They return to where they were deleted from.
Emptying the bin
When you're finished, Empty Recycle Bin permanently removes everything in it to reclaim space.
Emptying the bin is permanent — the space is reclaimed and the files can't be recovered afterwards.
Tips & troubleshooting
- The Recycle Bin is your safety net for shared-storage deletes — check here first if a file goes missing.
