I get lost at step 3, no where on my screen says "Archived" or "Deleted".

    Hi agunn; how are you today?

    You're clicking on the 'Viewed recently' first - right?

    This is what I get when I click on it:

    If you're not seeing this, can you post a screenshot of what you see and/or try another browser to see if it's a browser specific issue?

    Keep us posted!
