Agreed - if this is one-off then I'd not take such drastic steps. Explain the impact, ask her to refrain from doing it again.
Also, don't you have Shadow Copies enabled? And backups?

I'd be inclined to show her the error of her ways, make her sign a written policy regarding the deletion of data if need be, and move on.

Low and behold, she deleted some of those documents, roughly 200+. No problem, winundelete, I was able to recover about 150+. With that said, I was asked, could I remove delete option from her? I told them I would look into this situation. Now I’m stuck, because I can’t seem to find a simple method to remove a delete option for her. Is there such a thing? Even so, would that affect local deletion? Or can it even be restricted to the network only (shares). Anyone ever have experienced this type of request?
