Expand title Moving content to Trash | Purging Trash Warning To remove a file from your Drive, you can put it in your trash. The file will stay in your trash for 30 days before being automatically deleted.
If you're the owner of the file, others can access it until you permanently delete the file. If you're not the owner, others can access the file even if you empty your trash.
