Where do Deleted Files Go on Chromebook?
When you delete a file on your Chromebook, it is not permanently erased. Instead, it is moved to the Trash folder. The Trash folder is a temporary storage space where deleted files are kept until you empty it.
To access the Trash folder, open the Files app and click on the Trash icon in the sidebar. Here, you will see a list of all the files you have recently deleted.
To permanently delete a file from the Trash folder, right-click on it and select Delete forever. This will remove the file from your Chromebook and it will no longer be recoverable.
