Trash, delete & undo

Send the selection to your OS trash with Del (controller LT + B). DeckCrate uses each platform’s native trash:

  • Linux — the freedesktop trash spec
  • macOS~/.Trash
  • Windows — the Recycle Bin

Trashing is undoable.

Shift+Del deletes immediately, bypassing the trash. On a controller, delete permanently lives in the Start command menu. Permanent deletes are not undoable, so DeckCrate keeps them behind a deliberate action.

Most file operations can be undone and redone:

  • Undo: Ctrl/Cmd+Z
  • Redo: Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+Z
  • Or use the command menu’s Undo / Redo tiles.

Undo covers copy, move, rename, new folder, new file, trash, compress, and extract. History is a bounded in-memory list (it doesn’t persist across launches), and — as noted above — permanent deletes are not undoable.
