Emptying recycle bins
Emptying recycle bins using the web interface
When logged into the web interface, go to the Element info (
) tab. Recycle bins you have access to are listed at the bottom of each File System Location in the Navigation Area, on the left. Administrators will see all recycle bins. A given user will see only their own recycle bin.
To empty a given recycle bin, click on that recycle bin in the Navigation Area. Then click on the Empty Recycle Bin... button in the Info tab, on the right.
Administrators can empty all recycle bins for a given File System Location by clicking on that location in the Navigation Area, and then clicking on the Empty All Recycle Bins... button that will be visible under the Info tab (figure 17.2).
