How to Restore a deleted site in SharePoint
2013 or How to configure the Re-cycle Bin in SharePoint 2013
Description: In SharePoint 2013, a deleted site is not
permanently deleted. Instead, it is stored in the second-stage Recycle Bin. By
default, the Delete item in Recycle Bin setting is set for 30 days, which means
a deleted site will be permanently removed from the farm after the time value
expires. The value of the Delete item in Recycle Bin setting can be increased
if more time is needed to retain the deleted site.
Solution: we need to configure the Re-Cycle bin
settings first. To do so, Follow the below steps.
·
Verify that the user account that is
performing this procedure is a member of the Farm Administrators SharePoint
group.
·
On the SharePoint Central Administration Web
site, click Application Management.
·
On the Application Management page, click Manage
Web Applications.
·
Click the Web application for which you want
to configure Recycle Bin settings.
1.
On the ribbon,
click the General Settings drop-down menu, and then click General Settings.
On the Web Application General Settings page, in the Recycle Bin section, you
can configure the following settings:
2.
You can set the
Recycle Bins for the Web application to be On or Off. By default, Recycle
Bins are turned on. If you turn off the Recycle Bins, any existing items in
both the first and second-stage Recycle Bins are deleted. Depending on how
much data is contained in the Recycle Bins, deleting these items can take a
long time.

·
You can specify a time after which items in
the Recycle Bins are deleted, or you can specify that these items should never
be deleted. By default, items are deleted after 30 days.
·
You can specify a percentage of live site
quota for second-stage deleted items. The default setting is 50 percent. You
can also turn off second-stage Recycle Bins. If you select Off, site collection
administrators cannot recover items deleted from end-user Recycle Bins. The
second-stage Recycle Bin quota percentage must be a value from 1 through 500.
Use the following procedure to restore a
deleted site from the second-stage Recycle Bin.
1. Verify that the user account that is performing this
procedure has the site collection administrator permission.
2. In Central Administration, click Site Actions, and then click Site Settings.
3. In the Site
Settings section, click Recycle Bin.
4. On the Recycle
Bin page, select the check box
for the deleted site that you want to restore.
5. Click OK.
