Decrypting and Saving Original

Hi,
I decrypted a file yesterday via the WebIF and the Fox T2 decrypted the file created an "Original" folder and put the original ito it which is what i wanted to do.
Unfortunately I cannot find how to do it again! I can encrypt but loose the original.
Can somebody point me to info on how to save the original?

Thanks
 
I *think* it's normal for manual decrypt to save a backup of the original, so I don't know why it wouldn't be doing that now. However, it's possible the setting for auto-processing has some influence, even for manual operations:

WebIF >> Settings >> Auto-Processing Settings >> Create backup files in dustbin for decrypt and shrink? >> Yes

Are the originals in the [Deleted Items] folder (or whatever you've called it – see WebIF >> Settings >> Settings for undelete package >> Dustbin name)?

Other than that I'm clutching at straws: is your disk full? Do you have another process running which tidies away "Original" folders?

In all cases of errant operation, it's always worth a reboot, and if that doesn't fix it a fix-flash-packages and another reboot.

Thanks for the quick replies.
Last night I thought I did exactly as stated in first reply, and it worked, but as you imply, I then did further checking of info and investigated auto-processing (trying to learn more) so may well have left something set - will check later tonight and report findings.

My disk is only 30% used but will try and find the original assuming manual decrypt must always put it somewhere.
 
Apologies but how can I view the wastebin/basket!?
I have done a search but cannot get any results for using a GUI which I thought would show it!
 
Hi,
It was me, it is working OK
For others not familiar to where manual decrypt stores the original:
I first manual decrypted a single recording in "My Videos" folder and it created an "Original" folder in the same folder to store it.
At this point I thought (wrongly) that all other originals would be placed in this folder!!
I then manually decrypted another file that was originally in a folder with others which had been deleted, so when i decrypted the only file in the folder, it created a new "Original" folder in the folder of the single file.
This all now seems logical, I assume "Original" folders are always created in the same folders as the files whatever way decrypting is performed!?
Thanks
