The Recycle Bin and Trim Tool

Every time a trim is generated on an archive, the system automatically creates a copy of the original archive and places it in the Recycle Bin in Granicus MediaManager. The title of the auto-saved archive appears with the words (Auto-Generated Trim Backup) in the title. 

Warning! Whenever an archive is moved into the Recycle Bin, the system permanently deletes any archives 14 days or older in the Recycle Bin. These deleted files are not recoverable.
