Items that you delete from Adobe Dynamic Media Classic are moved to the Trash folder. The deleted remain in this folder for seven days until they are restored or permanently deleted. You can examine deleted items by clicking the Trash icon at the bottom of the Asset Library, and viewing items in the Trash folder page.
All users can restore items in the Trash folder to the folders from which they were deleted. All users can also empty the Trash folder of all its contents.
Deleting items from the Trash folder permanently deletes items from Adobe Dynamic Media Classic; items deleted from the Trash folder can no longer be restored. For information on setting up notifications for company administrators when assets are about to be automatically deleted from the Trash, see Application General Settings.
Assets that have been moved to the Trash folder are still registered on Adobe Dynamic Media Classic. If you try to upload a file that has the same name as a deleted file in the Trash folder, Adobe Dynamic Media Classic treats the asset you want to upload as a duplicate asset. As such, a number is appended to its name.

It is not necessary for the person who deleted an asset to restore it; anyone can restore assets from the Trash folder. Assets that are restored are placed in the folders from which they were deleted. If these folders no longer exist, Adobe Dynamic Media Classic re-creates them, and the restored assets are placed in the re-created folders.
To restore assets from the Trash folder to the folders from which they were deleted, do the following:
When you delete assets in the Trash folder, the assets are permanently deleted. Assets are automatically deleted from the Trash folder after seven days.
