Deleting a file from Bridge just moves the file to the Trash — so you still have a final chance to rescue it.

At least it does, if the file shown in Bridge is actually stored on your own computer.

Ann,

He said he deleted a whole folder from the server.

I know he did.

I was just adding an amendment to Phil’s comments concerning Bridge.

Ann,

You know, Bridge’s behaviour can be very, very misleading in that sense.

My experience has been that, once I move an image to the trash through Bridge, the trash can icon in the Dock remains empty —until I click on the trash can itself to open its window. Otherwise, you’d think the trash can was empty.

That is definitely very different than using the Finder to send a file to the Trash.

Yes, that is exactly what it does.
But at least your files are still there — provided that you know to look for them!

Yes, I eventually found that out. The truth is that I have never accidentally trashed a file through Bridge, and for a long time I just thought that it was deleting the files, bypassing the trash can. I was startled to find out one day that there were discarded Photoshop files in what appeared to be a perfectly empty trash can.

Incidentally that’s the way it’s been since the Panther days.
