Home lists your active projects. When a project is finished, or you no longer need it, you can archive it or move it to the trash. Neither touches your papers: they stay in your Global Library, with their Baggage, and in your other projects.
Step 1Open the project's menu
On Home, find the project under Projects. Choose ⋯ (More actions) at the bottom right of its card. The menu has Rename…, Archive and Move to trash.
Step 2Archive it
Choose Archive. The project leaves the Active list. To find it again, choose Archived above the list.
To bring it back, open its menu there and choose Move back to active.
Step 3Move it to the trash
Open the project's menu and choose Move to trash. CurTask asks Move this project to the trash? and reminds you that it can be restored from Trash for 30 days and that its papers stay in your Global Library. Choose Move to trash to confirm.
Step 4Restore it from the trash
Choose Trash above the list. Each project there shows the date it will be Removed for good. Open its menu and choose Restore.
The project comes back as it was: a project you had archived returns to Archived, the others to Active.
Tip: use the search box above the list to find a project by title in any of the three views.
