Restoring deleted folder

vchoi
When deleting individual references, they are moved to Trash. However, when deleting folders, the folders and their contents seem to be permanently deleted without first being stored in Trash. This is a terrible situation if one accidentally deletes a folder, which could be the result if the focus of the program is on a folder, rather than a reference, when pressing the Delete key!

    Is there a plan to fix this?

    The collection is deleted, but the items remain in the root of the library (the brown box icon). There is also a confirmation dialog that pops up when you delete a collection asking you to confirm it.

    (But yes, we plan to have deleted collections show up in the trash, from which they could be restored.)

    Good to hear, since I've accidentally deleted a folder twice already (there was definitely no pop-up confirmation). Thanks

    No, there's absolutely a confirmation popup. It's not possible to delete a collection without confirming it. But you may have pressed a series of keys and hit Backspace and Enter together.
