https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/modules/configure-azure-files-file-sync/5-implement-file-sync

On this page is stated:

"Soft delete for file shares is enabled at the storage account level."

This is incorrect: it is enabled at the file share level. The Knowledge Check question has this covered correctly.

    Hi Dirk Visser,

    Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q & A forum.

    Let's clarify the confusion.

    Explanation: "soft delete for file shares is enabled at the storage account level", This indicates that when soft delete is enabled for a storage account, it extends to all file shares within that account. Soft delete allows for the recovery of files or file shares that have been accidentally deleted, adding an extra layer of data protection. Enabling soft delete at the storage account level ensures consistent application of this protection across all file shares within the account, eliminating the need to enable it individually for each file share.

    However, the provided content implies that the soft delete feature is activated at the storage account level, as it references "Soft delete for all file shares" and presents options related to storage account settings like "Retention policies" and "Access Control (IAM)".

    So, based on the provided content, it is accurate to say that "soft delete for file shares is enabled at the storage account level".

    Please feel free to contact us if you have any additional questions.
