Hi support , may I know how we can expedite restore all files from recycle bin. The reason is may wrongly click something to remove all files from sharepoint thus one drive auto sync to remove all files. Have contacted IT support however, they response no solution only one way to manually click one by one page to restore :((

    Dear Sharen,

    Good day!! Thanks for posting your concern in this community~

    As per the description shared, I understand your concern and to my knowledge, I would like to convey that there is no option called Restore all items either in the Recycle bin of the OneDrive for Business or SharePoint Online site.

    I agree with you on having the ability to have the feature called Restore all items with one click on restoring all items the Recycle bin of OneDrive or SharePoint Online site will benefit the users and I suggest you add your valuable ideas as feedback in the SharePoint · Community is the best place to share our ideas and improve the Microsoft products.

    However, the workaround is to go to the Recycle bin of the OneDrive or SharePoint Online site and click on the check mark beside the Name & then scroll down complete where it will select all items in the recycle bin and able to restore it:

    Open the OneDrive for Business or SharePoint Online site> Recycle bin> Hover your mouse beside the Name column> Click on the Check mark> Scroll down completely to check the outcome:

    Appreciate your patience and understanding. Have a great day!!

    Best Regards,
    Sophia
