 **Note**: Please keep in mind that if you wish to **permanently delete** files stored in your bin, the only way to do so is by using the Command Line Interface (CLI). Look to the section explaining how to use ''irmtrash'' on the [[:rdms:access:linux:icommands|iCommands]] page.

+++++ Restoring Data via the Web Interface |
 Here, we explain how to restore files using the web interface. First, navigate to the Bin folder in the Data Browser (see screenshot below). Files that have been deleted from your Home Drive will appear in the Bin. Files deleted from folders within your Home Drive, or from your Team Drive or Projects, will generate a folder in the Bin corresponding to their original location (see the screenshot).

-Next, navigate to the file(s) you want to restore. Once selected, click the restore icon at the top part of the Data Browser, as seen in the screenshot below.
+Next, you can select the data that you want to restore. You can select a whole folder or single files inside of it. Also multiple files and folders can be selected (see "Using Hotkeys" section above). Once you selected the respective data, click the restore icon at the top part of the Data Browser, as seen in the screenshot below.

-The RDMS will open a new window and ask you for additional information. The first window asks you to specify where you want the deleted file to be sent after it is restored. You normally would want the file to be restored in its original location, but should you wish to have it restored in a different folder, this window is where you want to specify where.

-Here, the RDMS provides you the option to "Keep the current permissions" or also "add permission of a new location". If you are **restoring the file to its original location**, you can simply choose to **keep the current permissions**. If you wish to **restore the file in a new location**, it is probably best to **add the permissions of the new location** as well. In this case, permissions refer to who can access the file in the location where it will be restored. Should you choose to move the file to a new location and not add the permissions of said new location, then be aware that some users may not be able to see or access the file. Click "Ok" once you are done and wish to proceed.
