Deleted File NOT Restoring
We had someone accidentally delete the wrong document. I know how to restore files - go to deleted files and click restore, etc.
I have done this half a dozen times on two different browsers (Edge and Opera) and it keeps SAYING the file is restored but it just keeps showing back up in our deleted files.
What do I do?!
Now all files have restored properly after some hours. I haven't do any thing. I think it was some freeze on server.

I have the same problem with the same result and I dont know what to do more.
I can see the file in the deleted files windows. I can use the restore option, and it says its restored. The file disappears from that window, but he is not restored, and when I change the window or refresh it the file appears again in the file deleted window...
I tried with some others deleted files and its the same.

Hello,
I deleted a folder, but when I try to restore it, it keeps on showing the message restoring, but it doesn't.
Could you help me restore it please?
The folder which I need to be restored is in
applications/php/development/laravelApps/***
Thanks in advance.

Hey everyone, thanks for posting here!
Out of curiosity, did you all try a different browser, just to check if the behavior there is the same?
Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!

Fixed! I did not do anything either, but the files just get restored.
