Deleting a Folder
By default, all users can permanently delete folders that they own, or have
administrator or edit permissions to. Site Administrators can restrict who can
empty the Recycle Bin (thus permanently deleting the folder). If the default
is changed so that only Administrators can empty the Recycle Bin, then project
members can only "soft" delete files. That is, deleting a file sends it to the
Recycle Bin. The folder can then be recovered from the Recycle Bin unless an
Administrator permanently deletes it. To change who can empty the Recycle
Bin, click the Site Administration icon, and then click the General tab.
In the tree view, select the folder you want to delete and do one of the
following three actions:
■ In the toolbar, click the Delete button,
.
■ Right-click and choose Delete.
■ Press the DELETE key on your keyboard.
When an administrator deletes a folder, all contents (including subfolders)
are permanently deleted from the system.

Working Folders
Working folders is the term used to describe the folders on your hard drive
that are used to store files when they are downloaded from Buzzsaw. A strong
relationship exists between the files and folders you store on your site and
those you download to your local computer. The first time you download and
update files and folders you identify a directory path for the selected folder(s),
which can include all of its subfolders and files. Then, each time you download
and edit items on your local computer or update them (which creates a new
version on your site), the default path is automatically used.
Other notes about how working folders work:
■ Although the system remembers the last directory path you specified, you
always have the choice to modify the path.
