In the event that a user created a folder and proceeded to make parts in that folder. He never checked in the files and left the company, thus make the files hidden since they are local. In the mean time, I cannot move or organize the folder because of the hidden file. Is there anyway to show the file and may be delete (or destroy) it from the vault?
If you have Admin access you can delete the file yourself.
I do not know if you can get the file without access to the original computer that the file was created on. Maybe someone else can weigh in on that.
If someone has added a file to the vault but has never checked it in, it still exists in the vault. The file is in a private state before the first check-in. Typically, the vault is set up to hide these files from other users. Logged in as admin, it shows the file as seen in the image below.
There isn't a way to get the actual file without logging in to the PC that the file was created on but it is possible to remove the files from the vault as the admin.
This is exactly what I suspected, but I didn't want to post unsure information. Thank you for confirming this Alex Burnett
