All edited metadata is saved in companion `.xmp` sidecar files and the database.
However, Immich will delete original files that have been trashed when the trash is emptied in the Immich UI.
### Why do my file names appear as a random string in the file manager?
When Storage Template is off (default) Immich saves the file names in a random string (also known as random UUIDs) to prevent duplicate file names. To retrieve the original file names, you must enable the Storage Template and then run the STORAGE TEMPLATE MIGRATION job.

Yes, with an [External Library](/docs/features/libraries.md).
