    If it was a Share you probably need to ask for a new link from whoever sent it to re-add it. 

     

    If its not showing on the Events or deleted items that is only way to do it

    Please dont use all caps 😞 its hard to read and deemed rude on forums. 

     

    You need to ask the owner then of the share to restore it.

     

    Owners of Shared Folders can remove things, at will. That removes from everybody else as well. There isnt another way to do it.
