In Rubex when you delete an item, you can recover or purge that item from your Deleted Items bin, or "Recycle bin." This is a built-in feature to protect you from accidentally purging data, and it will act as a fail-safe in your account should a Cabinet, Drawer, Folder, or Document be accidentally deleted.

This feature is available in both the Rubex Web Interface, and the Rubex Desktop App.

**Please Note** The Recycle bin allows users to purge data permanently from Rubex. If you decide to purge an item in your recycle bin, it cannot be recovered not even from a backup.

How to Purge Deleted Items:

1. Log into Rubex
2. Select the Main Menu in the top left corner of the screen and go to Admin
3. In the left pane of the screen select "File Management" and then select "Recycle Bin"
   
4. You should see your Recycle Bin Table appear in the center pane of the screen
5. In the recycle bin, you can use the "FILTERS" option to find a file based on Name, Path, or date-range. 
6. Once your results are filtered, you can use the column-headers to sort the data in the recycle bin table
   
7. Once you have found the item that you wish to purge, select that item so it is highlighted in Grey
8. Select "Purge Selected" in the bottom left of the center-pane
   
   
   

Any Cabinet, Drawer, or Folder that is Purged cannot be recovered, not even from a backup.
