Restrict a User's Recycle Bin Options

Administrators can allow users to clear all files at once from their recycle bins by enabling Enable recycle bin clearing in the users' policy.

By default, Enable recycle bin clearing is enabled, allowing users to click Clear Deleted Files in the recycle bin.

If Enable recycle bin clearing is disabled in a policy, users belonging to the policy do not see a Clear Deleted Files button in the recycle bin.

Disabling Enable recycle bin clearing doesn't block the delete operation. Users can still remove files from the recycle bin on a file-by-file basis.

To enable or disable recycle bin clearing:

1. In the FileCloud admin portal's left navigation bar, scroll down and click Settings. Then, on the Settings navigation page, click Policies

   

   .
   The Policies page opens.
2. Click the Edit icon in the row for the users' policy.
   

   

3. The Policy Settings dialog box opens.
4. Click the User Policy tab.
5. Locate Enable recycle bin clearing, and enable or disable it.
   

   

   
   
6. Click Save.
