# Restore an asset from trash

Learn here how to restore an asset from the Trash during the time window configured before deletion/purge. Users can only restore assets if they have [permission](/docs/Asset-permissions-explained) to do so.

#### How to restore assets

1. Enter the [Trash](/docs/trash-doc) folder.
2. Find and select the asset(s) you wish to restore.
3. Right click.
4. Select ‘Restore’. ![The right-click menu for an asset in the Trash, with Restore at the bottom](https://cdn.document360.io/c173e68f-0609-4297-9277-0fc5c6b45db7/Images/Setting/cliplink-trash-restore-menu-44.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-06T17%3A00%3A25Z&se=2026-11-06T18%3A00%3A25Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=8nMtrHPrU3bum4ibPXX68%2F58uOxlecXw8JCebXfgClM%3D)
5. Confirm the assets to be restored by reviewing your selection and selecting ‘Restore’. Otherwise, ‘Cancel’. ![restore 2.png](https://cdn.document360.io/c173e68f-0609-4297-9277-0fc5c6b45db7/Images/Documentation/restore%202.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-06T17%3A00%3A25Z&se=2026-11-06T18%3A00%3A25Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=8nMtrHPrU3bum4ibPXX68%2F58uOxlecXw8JCebXfgClM%3D)
