missing recycle bin on s6

[maplecrew]

hi,

i have lost all my photos on my s6. 

i do NOT have recycle bin. i've tried all the obvious solutions but there is no option under 'my files', 'gallery' or photos to access the recycle bin to restore them.

does anyone know how to install my missing recycle bin?

thanks in advance

Hey there and welcome to the Samsung UK and EU Community Forum

Sorry to hear of your issues here.

Did you have a backup in place such as Google Photos, One Drive etc?

If yes then head there quickly and reinstate them.

If no I fear you've lost them as you don't have a recycle bin in place.
