I deleted an image from VFB history by mistake and can't find it in the recycle bin

Hi. I've just deleted an image from VFB history by mistake and can't find it in the recycle bin. I've recently started using the "Use project path" option in the VFB settings so the images are saved in the project folder. Could this have caused this? I haven't had this issue before.

Hi, thanks for posting. Saving and deleting images from VFB history works with no issues on my end. The deleted images can be found in the recycle bin. I am using 3ds Max 2024 with V-Ray 6.10.08

I'm thinking if the project path isn't a local one, for instance a NAS or something, what happens to the deleted file? Is it also going to the recycle bin?

Yes, the project is not on a local drive. It's on a mapped network drive which is an HDD in another PC on the local network. There's no issues if I disable the option "Use project path".

Well than it depends on how deleted files have been set up on the other computer, if recycle bin has been set up on that drive, you'll probably find it there.

I can't find it in the recycle bin there either. It's as if they get permanently deleted.
