If the Trash contains recovered files on Mac
One or more Recovered Files folders may appear in your Trash after you restart your Mac.
The recovered files are temporary files used by macOS apps. Usually temporary files are deleted by an app when it no longer needs them. If an app quits unexpectedly, it may not be able to delete the temporary files before it quits. When you restart your Mac, macOS moves these temporary files to the Trash.
Check with the developer if you’re not sure how to handle recovered files.
On your Mac, click in the Dock.
After viewing the recovered files, do one of the following:
Retrieve useful files: Drag them out of the Trash.
Empty the Trash: Click the Empty button in the upper-right corner of the Finder window (or choose Finder > Empty Trash).
In the warning message that appears, click Empty Trash.
