Oh wait I figured it out! I just had to go to my computer's recycling bin and see the images I accidentally delted from today, then I had to click on the file and press "restore". Hope that helps others. I used a  lenovo laptop so these steps may vary depending on the type and brand of computer you use!

Ha! that's the obvious one. I was assuming that you'd already looked.

If you've deleted them from Bridge, you will find them in your system's trash can. If you've emptied your system trash can than you will need to use an undelete utility to recover them. 

 

IF you are on a Mac and IF are using Time Machine, and IF the images were on your system for a sufficient amount of time, than recovery, even if the images were deleted from your trash can, is very easy.

Why Bridge on Mac does not move deleted files to Trash? They simple disappear and can't be restored.

They are on a server...is that a problem? Sorry 😞


Yes that's how it works on a server. Files are usually deleted immediately.

You would need an undelete utility for your operating system.
