Trash

When deleting files you can select to permanently delete them, or to place them in the Trash (default option). The Trash page allows you to restore deleted files to where they were, or delete them permanently.

If the administrator has enabled automatic purging, a note under the page title shows after how many days items in the Trash are deleted automatically.

In the table, you can see the following information:

• Name
• Size – Displays the size for files. For folders, click Calculate to fetch their size.
• Deletion Date – Shows the timestamp when the file was deleted.
• Original Path – Displays where the file was located before delete.

Clicking the Toggle icon reveals additional details:

• Permissions – Displays symbolic file permissions (e.g., drwxr-xr-x). Hover over them to view the octal (numeric) equivalent (e.g., 0755).
• Owner – The UID of the file or folder owner.
• Group – The GID of the group that owns the file or folder.
• Links – The number of hard links to the file or directory.
• Link Target – If it’s a symlink, this shows the target it points to.
• Type – Indicates whether it's a directory, file, or symbolic link.
