What happens when an edit is deleted
Deleting an edit removes it from your project straight away. It leaves the edit list, and any link that named that edit stops opening it.
The delete is not the end of the story. Eddie saves your project as a numbered version every time anything changes, and it keeps those versions. The deleted edit is still in the version from just before the delete.
Ask Eddie to bring it back
Ask in the prompt box, in plain language:
"Show me the versions of my interview edit."
"Restore the interview edit I just deleted."
Eddie lists the versions it has, then restores the one you choose.
You do not need a version number. If you remember roughly when the edit was still there, say so. "Restore it from before I deleted it" is enough.
What the restored edit is called
The edit comes back as a NEW edit, beside whatever is in your project now. It keeps the original name and carries the version on the end, for example Interview cut (restored r128).
Nothing is overwritten. Your current edits are untouched. You can restore the same version twice if you want to compare two versions side by side.
Rename it if you want the old name back. Ask Eddie: "Rename Interview cut (restored r128) to Interview cut."
What does not come back
Read these two limits before you rely on a restore.
Per-edit treatments are not restored. A restore brings back the edit itself: its cuts, their order, and its b-roll. It does NOT bring back the treatments that were attached to the edit's name — captions, titles, music, color grades and crops. Ask for those again on the restored edit.
An empty edit has nothing to restore. If the edit was never built, or was emptied before it was deleted, there are no cuts to bring back. A restore then gives you an empty edit.
This is a recovery path, not an undo button. It gets your cut back. It does not put the project back exactly as it was.
Undo the whole change instead
If the delete was the last thing that happened, and you want the project back as it was — treatments included — ask Eddie to undo the last change rather than restore the edit.
That reverts the WHOLE project to the earlier version. Anything else that changed after that point is reverted too. Eddie first shows you what the undo would change and waits for you to confirm. Read that summary before you confirm it.
Still stuck
Tell Eddie the name you used for the edit and roughly when you deleted it. If Eddie still cannot find it, contact support with the project and the edit name.
