Workbench Disk: Trashcan Drawer

The Trashcan drawer is a special drawer in each volume for storing files that you no longer need and may wish to delete.

Discard icons or Pseudo Icon for the files to be deleted by dragging them into the Trashcan.

If the icon to be discarded is a drawer, its associated files are also moved to the Trashcan.

Choosing Empty Trash from the Icons menu deletes the icons and all of their associated files from the Trashcan.

Before choosing Empty Trash, you can still recover any of the Trashcan contents by opening its window and dragging the icons back out.

Rules of the Trashcan:

  • Icons can only be moved to a Trashcan on the same volume.
  • Disks cannot be deleted using the Trashcan.
  • The Trashcan cannot be moved into a drawer.
  • The Trashcan cannot be deleted with a Delete menu item.
