Access Rights

You must have the Read access right to use this tab.

Remarks

When you use the Delete command to delete a file or project from VSS, the deleted item is removed from VSS Explorer.  However, VSS continues to store the item, so that you can retrieve it if you want to build an earlier version of the project.  After you recover or purge an item, however, it no longer appears in the list in the Deleted Items tab.
