When you remove a resume or cover letter, it goes to **Trash** instead of disappearing. It stays there for 30 days, so you can bring it back if you change your mind. ## Move a document to Trash On Documents, open the document's **⋯** menu and choose **Move to Trash**. In the editor, open the document name menu at the top left and choose **Move to Trash**; you return to Documents. Reactive Resume doesn't ask you to confirm, because the move can be undone. A message appears at the bottom of the screen. Select **Undo** to put the document back straight away. ![A message reading One-Page Resume (copy) moved to Trash with an Undo button](https://mintcdn.com/reactiveresume/rtb73NdrPCUreUAd/images/guides/using-the-trash/moved-to-trash-toast.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=rtb73NdrPCUreUAd\&q=85\&s=35c1440ef38de1d90ddac83345d881fc) While a resume is in Trash, its public link stops working. Restoring it brings the resume back as it was. > [!NOTE] > > Locked documents can't be moved to Trash. Choose **Unlock** in the document's menu first. ## Open the Trash Once Trash holds something, a **Trash** item with a count appears at the bottom of the sidebar. Select it to open the Trash page. ![The Trash item in the sidebar with a count of 1](https://mintcdn.com/reactiveresume/rtb73NdrPCUreUAd/images/guides/using-the-trash/trash-in-sidebar.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=rtb73NdrPCUreUAd\&q=85\&s=8d66f5f65b73fd33d2cb9fa3e09b2503) You can also open the [command bar](/guides/using-the-command-bar) with ⌘ K (Ctrl K on Windows and Linux) and choose **Trash**, or go to `https://rxresu.me/dashboard/trash`. Self-hosters use their own address. The Trash page lists each document with its **Type**, linked **Application**, and how many days are left under **Deleted in**. When it's empty, it says **Trash is empty**. ## Restore a document **1. Open the row's menu** On the Trash page, select **⋯** at the end of the document's row. ![The Trash page listing One-Page Resume (copy) with 30 days left and a menu showing Restore and Delete now](https://mintcdn.com/reactiveresume/rtb73NdrPCUreUAd/images/guides/using-the-trash/trash-page-row-menu.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=rtb73NdrPCUreUAd\&q=85\&s=7930cf5e4b08e84a25ab9c82fe3af8f2) **2. Choose Restore** Select **Restore**. The document goes back to Documents with its content, tags and links intact. ## Delete a document for good Documents are deleted permanently 30 days after you moved them to Trash. To delete one sooner: **1. Choose Delete now…** On the Trash page, open the row's **⋯** menu and choose **Delete now…**. **2. Confirm** Select **Delete now** to confirm, or **Keep in Trash** to change your mind. ![A dialog asking Delete One-Page Resume (copy) now?
