Ever felt like you made a mistake and deleted something from your Mac computer that you shouldn’t have? Don’t worry, there is a way to get it back! This guide will show you how to access trash on your Mac, and get back the lost treasures you accidentally removed.
Rummaging Through the Mac Rubbish Bin!
The first step is to locate the Trash folder. You can do this by clicking on the Finder icon in the Dock. This will open your Finder window, which should have a Trash icon along the left side. If the Trash icon isn’t visible, you can find it in the Finder’s Go menu at the top. The Trash folder will contain everything you’ve deleted since your Mac was last restarted.
You can also go to the Trash folder from the Desktop. To do this, select the Desktop from the Go menu. Then click on the Trash icon that appears at the bottom of the Desktop window.
Uncovering Trashy Mac Treasures!
Once you’ve located the Trash folder, it’s time to search for the treasure you’ve lost. To do this, simply click on the Trash folder and look through the list of items in the window. You may find more than one item that you’ve deleted, so be sure to sort the list by date to help you find the one you’re looking for.
If you can’t find the item you’re looking for, don’t worry! You can search for it using the search bar at the top of the Trash folder window. Simply type in the name of the item you’re looking for and it should appear in the list.
Now that you know how to access the Mac Trash, you can easily recover any items that you accidentally deleted. Just remember to make sure you empty your Trash folder regularly to ensure your Mac is running at its best.
