Hi Abuar,
Welcome to Box Community!
Let me help find your missing files. Do you know if the affected files and folders are shared or owned?
Notes:
- When items are deleted from a collaboration folder, both the owner and the person who deleted the item can recover the items from the Trash.
- If you are removed as a collaborator from a file or folder that you've deleted, you no longer see that item in Trash. To see the item in Trash, you must be again added as a collaborator to that item.
To restore specific items in Trash:
The steps below apply whether you’re selecting from search results or from all Trash items.
- Hover to highlight the row of the item you want. The More Options ellipsis (…) displays.
- Click the ellipsis (...). Then:
- To return the item to its original location in Box, click Restore.
- At the prompt, click Okay.
For more details regarding file and folder recovery, please visit Managing Trash.
Hope it helps!
Hello,
Thank you for your kind response.
Unfortunately I did not find my lost files/folders in the Trash folder!
So is there any backup of my files somewhere? Thanks.
To answer your question, my files/folders are owned, if I remember
correctly.
