Restrict a User's Recycle Bin Options

Administrators can configure how FileCloud users can interact with the site's Recycle Bin through policies.

• Use a checkbox to allow or restrict a user's ability to clear all files at once from their recycle bins.

By default, all users:

• Belonging to the Global Default Policy
• Logged in to the User Portal
• Can click on Folder Actions and select Clear Deleted Files

If this option is not selected by clearing the checkmark, users:

• Belonging to the Global Default Policy
• Logged in to the User Portal
• Can click on Folder Actions but will not see a Clear Deleted Files option.

  This policy doesn't block the delete operation! Users can still remove files from the recycle bin on a file-by-file basis.

To configure this option:

1. Open a browser and log in to the Admin Portal.
2. From the left navigation pane, under Settings, click Settings.
3. On the Manage Settings screen, select the Policies tab.
4. On the Manage Policies screen, select the Global Default Policy to change this for all users, or select the policy you want to use.
5. In the row of the policy, click the edit icon ().

6. In the Policy Settings window, select the User Policy tab.

7. Scroll down until you see a checkbox labeled Enable Recyclebin Clear Feature.
