Hi,

I want to delete the items from archives after 60 days when user delete the shortcuts from mailbox.
The archive policy attached to retention period of 7 years.
There is a checkbox at the Retention properties window that "prevent deletion of archived items in this category".
If I clear this checkbox; is it anables deleting archived items from Archives regardless the retention period?

Thanks

If the tickbox is checked, then you won't be able to delete items which have that retention category.  If you untick it, and your site settings allow users to delete items from their archive AND their desktop policy's shortcut deletion behaviour is set to "ask" or "both", then they can delete items with this retention category right from Outlook.

Hope that helps,
