Restoring Deleted Folders
TL;DR
Deleted folders go to the Recycle bin, and any user who had access to the folder before deletion can restore it. To restore a folder, open the Recycle bin from your profile picture, find the folder by searching In Recycle bin or selecting it from the list, and then click Restore either from the sidebar or in the folder’s item view.

Items in the Recycle bin can be accessed and restored by any user who had access to it before it was deleted.
Deleted folders are moved to the Recycle bin. If they're still needed, they can be restored and returned to their original location before deletion.
-
Right-click the folder’s name and select Restore 1.
-
Click on your profile picture and select Recycle bin 1 from the drop down.
- Open the Recycle bin and click the folder you wish to restore.
-
On the top-right corner inside the item view of the selected folder, click Restore 1.
When a folder or project is restored, all its sub-items - including subfolders, subprojects, and tasks - are automatically restored, regardless of when those sub-items were deleted. Items that were deleted separately and prior to the parent’s deletion will also be restored. To avoid restoring unwanted sub-items, ensure they are fully untagged or permanently deleted from the Recycle Bin before restoring the parent folder or project.
