Introduction

By default, deleted records such as projects, are permanently removed and cannot be restored. However, Microsoft has added an optional Recycle Bin feature to Power Platform environments that must be manually enabled by an admin. Note this feature may still be set to Preview status by Microsoft in your Microsoft 365 tenant - Preview features are not meant for production use and may have restricted functionality.

For more information, see Restore deleted Microsoft Dataverse table records (preview) - Power Platform | Microsoft Learn. If this feature has been enabled by your admin, follow the below instructions.
