Enable Trash (Recycle Bin) on Chrome OS

So, how to enable trash on ChromeOS? Well, before you proceed to the instructions, the first thing you need to ensure is that your Chromebook is running the most recent version, i.e., Chrome OS 89 on it. You don’t need to head over to the Dev or Beta channel, as you can access the Trash feature on the Stable channel only. That said, let’s proceed further to the steps to enable Trash (Recycle Bin) on Chrome OS.

1.       Initiate the process by opening Chrome, and further, in the address bar, you need to type chrome://flags and hit the enter button.

2.       Upon reaching the Flags page in Chrome, locate “Trash.”

3.       Further, select enabled from the drop-down menu.

4.       A “Restart” prompt will get displayedon your screen on the bottom-right side. To make the changes, you need to click on it. But before that, you need to save all your work, as hitting the click button will restart Chrome OS. Once rebooted, you will observe Trash (Recycle Bin) on Chrome OS under the Files app.

5.       From now on, deleting anitemwill directly move it to Trash. In case you want to recover the deleted files in the future, you may hit the restore button oreven delete the files permanently.

6.       If, after a certain duration, you don’t want Trash (Recycle Bin) to appear under the Files app, justselect “Disabled” under the Flags page and then reboot your Chromebook. That’s all you need to do.

 

So, these were the instructions using which you can enable Trash (Recycle Bin) on your Chromebook and recover all the deleted files from Trash. This feature is pretty similar to Recycle Bin; however, the only thing that differentiates it from the former is that there's isn't any shortcut available for emptying Trash. We hope that this thing will be considered and will be worked upon for future releases. Anyway, that’s all from us for now. We will come up with more Chrome OS updates in the future.
