Has it ever happened that you accidentally deleted thousands of files from your Mac and they all went to trash but you can not restore them as the Put Back option is not available in Trash on Mac. Well it’s normal and it happens. Sometimes when you delete files and folders from different locations and try to restore them all together the Put Back option is grayed out and doesn’t allow you to restore the deleted files. We have received a lot of queries and calls from our clients, who actually installed some cleaning/ tune up software on their Mac and the software suggested to delete a lot of unused files to free up some space. As a result of which, the users ( our clients) deleted the files and folder assuming them as unneeded and the software moved them all to trash. Later on, when the user opened Photos and iTunes app, he was shocked to see that all of his pictures and songs collection has gone. Upon checking the trash he found that most of those missing pictures and songs were actually deleted and staying in the trash. But much to his surprise that he could not undo this action as the restore/ put back option was not available. Well this post is going to tell you why the Put Back option is not available in Trash on Mac, or missing or grayed out. This article is intended for all those Mac users who are unable to restore the deleted files from trash on their Mac because the put back option is missing or grayed out.
