Hello @reubencohen! 👋

Thank you for the question. If you're using the 1Password 8 app on either a Mac, Windows, or Linux device then you can find, and purge, deleted items from the Recently Deleted folder:

  1. Open and unlock the 1Password 8 desktop app.
  2. In the sidebar on the left scroll down and click Recently Deleted.
  3. Right-click on the item that you'd like to purge and then click Destroy permanently.
  4. Follow the instructions in the prompt to destroy the deleted item.

If I misunderstood your question then please let me know what kind of device you're using, what version of 1Password you're using, and describe what you see on your screen.
