one of which involves deletion aspects.

00:00:09

As with all Microsoft applications, it is possible to delete items

00:00:14

to do this. First, select the document you want to delete,

00:00:17

then click on the three dots.

00:00:20

Once in the feature menu, click on Delete.

00:00:23

A first security measure asks you to confirm your choice.

00:00:27

You can either click. Cancel to prevent deletion or click delete to confirm it.

00:00:32

Once the document is deleted, it moves to the recycle bin.

00:00:39

When the document is in the recycle bin, you have 93 days to restore it.

00:00:43

After this period,

00:00:44

it will be removed from the primary recycle bin and move to the second stage.

00:00:48

Recycle bin.

00:00:50

The second stage recycle bin is a second safety net and

00:00:53

allows you to restore documents that may have been accidentally deleted.

00:00:57

To access this secondary,

00:00:59

recycle bin scroll to the bottom of the primary

00:01:01

recycle bin and click on the second stage.

00:01:03

Recycle bin button.

00:01:05

You will then have an additional 30 days to restore the document.

00:01:09

Once restored, the document will return to its original location.

00:01:13

Be aware that if the document is deleted from the secondary recycle bin.

00:01:16

It cannot be restored and will be permanently deleted.

00:01:20

The 90 day and 30 day restoration periods can be modified by administrators.

00:01:26

Finally, if your onedrive library is synchronised with your computer,

00:01:30

it is important to note that deleting items from the

00:01:32

file Explorer will also delete the documents on ONEDRIVE.

00:01:36

Since the documents are the same and not copies,

00:01:38

any action in one location will affect the other.

00:01:41

The restoration of these documents will follow the same procedures

00:01:45

as documents deleted directly from your online onedrive space.
