Occasionally users may wish to delete folders from their Specialist products file structure, this can be done by users with sufficient Permissions (modify level required) relatively easily.

Folders with their Individual documents and its collection of associated files, can be deleted entirely from the project and this is a two stage process, firstly the folder and its contents can be recycled which effectively removes them from normal team member access in the project.  This is done by right clicking on the folder and selecting recycle folder.

Once it is recycled the folder can be restored back to the live project with right click 'move folder' or deleted permanently by clicking on a folder icon in the specialist products area of the tree view and then, either:

  • Right clicking and selecting 'delete folder'.
  • Selecting the 'delete folder' option from the folder option in the main menu.

Following either of these actions you will be prompted with a box saying 'are you sure?' confirming yes will then delete the folder, its documents and all its associated files and versions from the project and from other processes where they were being shown.
