hopefully someone knows the answer to this and can help out.. i figured i would ask here rather than a microsoft or tech support reddit because i hope you understand where i’m coming from.
so the tldr is i’m hoping to leave my job soon (i don’t know what i’ll do next but it’s toxic as heck and a bunch of people already left and even more are leaving as well and i don’t want to be the last one). we have one drive at work and i’m currently moving all of my stuff to a personal usb stick/thumb drive/whatever you want to call it and deleting everything else.
my question is though, if i delete everything from the recycle bin both off the desktop and off of one drive is there any way my employer can recover my files? thanks and i hope you understand where i’m coming from.
no, there is no contract or policy stating they own what i create which is exactly why i’m deleting everything- i completely taught myself everything with no help and created everything myself 100% so i am taking it all with me. i’m also employed at-will. thank you.
