Deleting a single item from the trash.

Hello

Is there a way to delete a single item from the trash, while leaving all other items in the trash?

You cannot delete individual items from the Trash in the Finder without emptying the whole Trash.

I don't believe so and I'm not sure why you would want to.

Items should not be placed in the Trash unless you intend to delete the items. The Trash is not designed for and should not be used as a temporary storage location.
