# Restore, copy, or delete Archived content or widgets

Perform the following actions on Archived content or widgets in the Archived section:

- Archived content and widgets get restored to the Draft stage as the latest version.
- Links, videos, images, and PDFs in the Archived section cannot be copied.
- Restored content and widgets return to the folders from which they were archived, if the folders still exist. If a folder doesn't exist anymore, the content or widgets get added to the list of all content.
