How can I restore files that have been deleted?

When you delete files from a document library or list in Microsoft Teams or SharePoint, they aren't instantly erased. Instead, deleted items are temporarily stored in the SharePoint site recycle bin for a certain duration. It's important to note that this recycle bin is different from the Windows recycle bin found on your desktop.

Go to the SharePoint site that the items were deleted from. (In Microsoft Teams, from the Files tab at the top of your channel, select "More "> "Open in SharePoint" to get to the site.) 

1. Click on the cog and select Site Contents
   
   
2. When the Site Contents page has loaded click on the Recycle icon on the top right corner of the page
   
3. The Recycle bin displays files that are in the first stage of deletion. You can select the files that you wish to recover by hovering to the left of the items and clicking to select required items.
   
4. Once you have made your selection click on Restore
