So you restore versions until you find the one you want. It's slightly
tedious, OTOH, maybe you shouldn't be emptying your trash so often or
quickly. You can get free utilities that automatically empty your
trash, too, after a period that you set.

Time Machine automatically makes hourly backups for the past 24 hours,
daily backups for the past month, and weekly backups for all previous
months. The oldest backups are deleted when your backup disk is full.
