  • My recycle bin icon disappeared, how do I get it (currently using a 'shortcut' icon)

    The displayed icons on the desktop (who are always there when you get a new computer) were all there at the time.  some time later, I realized that (the small wastebasket) recycling bin icon disappeared - I don't know why.  I was able to get back a "shortcut" on my desktop icon, but I couldn't find the original icon.  I have the shortcut icon has now the small arrow in the lower left corner, so I know that's not the original icon.  It works fine, but I was really puzzled as to why the original disappeared?  I had a lot of computers over the years and I never had this problem before?

    Right-click on the desktop, click Customize, and then in the left pane, click the change desktop icons > put a check mark next to the trash

  • duplication of files created automatically in recycled bin

    I analyze pdf files and place them in its respective folders (Skydrive), automatically a second copy is placed in the Recycle Bin. Why this duplication that is happening and how to fix even? Thank you.

    Hi EbbyGuallar,

    -Is that this duplication problem is specific to any file or all the files on the computer?

    I suggest you to check if the problem persists in creating the word/text document. This problem can cause due to the infection by the virus. Then check if the problem persists in Safe Mode with networking, if the problem does not persist try running virus scan using the Microsoft Safety Scanner, it will help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

    Note: When the boot advanced options select Safe mode with network.

    Also Note: data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means there is a risk of data loss.

    It will be useful. Back to us for any problem related to Windows. We will be happy to help you.

  • Outlook Express accidentally deleted data form. How can I restore it from the Recycle Bin?

    As I said I was moving an e-mail on file to clarify that I keep on many topics.  When an opportunity moving fuction outlook express installs all my local folder to the trash.  a when I try to use the import feature in outlook, I don't see the trash to shoot again in outlook or send to outlook?  I'm not the best person with a p/c, but don't use it assign to all my data.  I don't like the paper.

    I went to Microsoft support and the message I got was to call the cemmererical support team?

    Thank you

    original title: how to restore my data express form in outlook that was placed in the trash, I moved an email in a folder and all other data files were sent to the Recycle Bin

    1. Please do not use Outlook as a shortcut to Outlook Express. They are two completely different programs.
    2. Bak files, you see in the trash is moved when you attemptrd to move messages, i.e. an automatic backup that occurs when the compaction of your records. They were probably there already.
     
    If you are moving messages, first examine all records to ensure that they don't end up in the right folder, or becomes one subfolder of another. If this is not the case, read on.
     
    *****************************************
     
     
    Two reasons the most common for what you describe is disruption of the compacting process, (never touch anything until it's finished), or bloated folders. More about that below.
     
    Why OE insists on compacting folders when I close it? :
    http://www.insideoe.com/FAQs/why.htm#compact
     
    Why mail disappears:
    http://www.insideoe.com/problems/bugs.htm#mailgone
     
    Recovery methods:
     
    If you are running XP/SP3, then you should have a backup of your dbx files in the Recycle Bin (or possibly the message store), copied as bak files.
     
    To restore a folder bak on the message store folder, first find the location of the message store.
     
    Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.
     
    In Windows XP, the .dbx files are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in the Solution Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder options | View.
     
    Close OE and in Windows Explorer, click on the dbx to the file missing or empty file, then drag it to the desktop. It can be deleted later once you have successfully restored the bak file. Minimize the message store.
     
    Open OE and, if the folder is missing, create a folder with the * exact * same name as the bak file you want to restore but without the .bak. For example: If the file is Saved.bak, the new folder should be named saved. Open the new folder, and then close OE. If the folder is there, but just empty, continue to the next step.
     
    First of all, check if there is a bak file already in the message. If there is, and you have removed the dbx file, go ahead and rename it in dbx.
     
    If it is not already in the message, open the trash and do a right-click on the file bak for the folder in question and click on restore. Open the message store up and replace the .bak by .dbx file extension. Close the message store and open OE. Messages must be in the folder.
     
    If messages are restored successfully, you can go ahead and delete the old dbx file that you moved to the desktop.
     

    If you have not then bak copies of your dbx files in the Recycle Bin:
     
    DBXpress run in extract disc Mode is the best chance to recover messages:
    http://www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/default.aspx
     
    And see:

    http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#4
     
    A general warning to help avoid this in the future:
     
    Do not archive mail in default OE folders. They finally are damaged. Create your own folders defined by the user for mail storage and move your mail to them. Empty the deleted items folder regularly. Keep user created folders under 300 MB, and also empty as is possible to default folders.
     
    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the CPUs, slows down sending and receiving and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes and has even been responsible for the loss of messages. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
    http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 
     
    And backup often.

  • Icons Recycle Bin twice on the desktop__

    Duplicate icons Recycle Bin on my desktop Vista (SP2).  An icon is a shortcut and the other is not. I can't remove the icon which is not a shortcut, ERROR = "this file have not an association of pgm..." »

    Thank you

    Philippe walter

    You may not have to not remove the icon without the small arrow, its the original Recycle Bin on the desktop. One with a small arrow that indicates it is a short must be deleted.  It is easy to create a shortcut, right-click on the Recycle Bin > create a shortcut, another with a small arrow icon appears on the desktop. I hope I could help

  • I lost my recycling bin. I can't find it with a search. How can I find?

    It was on my desk. Now gone.

    The option 'delete' when right-clicking on the Recycle Bin is new, giving you the option to delete the shortcut on your desktop easily. To restore, you can go to start-> Control Panel-> appearance and personalization-> personalization and then click on "change desktop icons" in the left column. From there just check the Recycle Bin and click OK.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

    Hello

    Try these steps-
    Create the shortcut proposed (to cmd.exe/c start)
    Now, open properties such as proposed
    Add the full path in the 'Target' field with your own relative path and the app, for example
    %windir%\system32\CMD.exe /c start your_relpath\app.exe [your_args]

    That's all. However, doing so does not change the current working of the called program directory. If this is desired, then enter the following alternative:
    %windir%\system32\CMD.exe /c "cd your_relpath & start app.exe [your_args].

    The & is described as a command separator (see cmd /?). Note: Put something like '% CD%\your_relpath\' in the field ' start in ' doesn't do anything.

    You can try this as well-
    Create .bat file close record/yarn that you want to have the relative path
    Edit the file, and the file type: (as you want to open c:\bin\app.exe, and then place file beats in c:\run.bat)
    Departure bin\app.exe
    Save the run.bat file and double-click it to open it.

  • How do I find/recover a file deleted from a move/replace when the Recycle Bin is bypassed?

    Recently, I made a search for particular file template.  The Find dialog box, I selected all files returned by the search and trained in a backup folder.  Unfortunately, there were a few files with the same name and I selected by error "Replace" and the particular file I was interested has been moved or deleted.  I thought I was doing a copy, but the source files have been deleted.  I tried to run several file recovery programs, none of them found the files that have been deleted as a result of this move/replace operation (apparently the Recycle Bin is bypassed for this operation).  I know that the directory they are found, but the program is not all the deleted files in these directories.  Help!

    I recreated this scenario in Windows 7 with the same result.  How these files are deleted, and how to find them?

    Hi Jimstaff,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

    Try to face a return of the folder that contains the files now and then try to restore to a previous version.

    Whenever a system restore point is created for your computer, an older version of each file is created. You can try to right click on this particular and select restore to the previous version. You may get different dates, which you can restore back.

    Try this if you have restore points created for folders. If this isn't the case, then there is no way how you can recover these files.

    Hope this information is useful.
