Introduction
BigMIND allows you to permanently delete specific files or folders from your cloud backup. This action frees up cloud storage and ensures that the data will not be re-uploaded to the cloud unless modifications are made locally on your machine.
To delete an entire backup, please refer to this article.
How to Delete Data from BigMIND Cloud
When you delete files from your backup, they will not be automatically backed up again unless the original files are modified on the local drive where they are stored.
- Sign in to your BigMIND web console.
- From the left-side menu, select Discover.
- From the left-side panel of the Discover data page, choose the machine that contains the file(s)/folders(s) you want to delete, by clicking on its name.
- Select the desired files or folders and click the Delete
icon. A request will be processed by a specialized data deletion service. The data will be deleted over time, freeing up storage, and moved to the Trash folder. You have 30 days to undo the deletion if needed.
