How can I empty easily deleted folder?

I want to empty e-mail removed easily without doing it individually

I'm not a user of Thunderbird, but based on what I've read...

To immediately remove everything in the trash, you should be able to do one of these:

  • Right click on the file > empty trash
  • Menu file > empty trash

In any case, you should also be able to delete all messages by clicking to select the first message, then using either

  • CTRL + a (select) all
  • Shift + end (select at the end)
  • Scroll down > shift + click on the last message

All of the selected messages, press the delete key.

A little luck?

Two notes:

(1) thunderbird can manage IMAP accounts somewhat differently from pop accounts This article provides more information: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Deleting_messages_in_IMAP_accounts.

(2) deleted messages can be retrieved using a text editor until the file is compacted. This article contains more information on the compaction: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Compacting_folders.

    The Genius bar went yesterday to resolve a problem.  During which, the genius deleted all my music, photos and movies by being connected with a disc of Triage and the magic Apple Genius ID.  He stopped at the command "Empty trash" because he took long (approx. 300 GB of data).  Now, my drive is missing that much space.

    Any ideas how can I empty the Recycle Bin or restore these files?  (Short to return to the Apple store?)

    Thanks in advance...

    You have a backup, if so what kind? It may be interesting to restore if you have a recent backup. Otherwise I would like to backup now if you have a spare drive to use-

    even in this State. At least you have a copy if it fails to restore the Recycle Bin.

    Have what problem you tried to bring to the store? I have to wonder if start over again with a fresh install is a better option?

    It is possible to "put the files"...

    Select an item in the Recycle Bin, right click (or use ctrl + click). In the menu that appears, select 'Put back'. It may not be an option (I don't remember which version added this feature, I think that it was 10.6).

    It is available "back" may not restore all the files and some files may already have been recreated in the old location (existing preferences for example).

    I fear this is can be a messy situation to fix.

    It might be easier to restore files from a different user account, where the need for a backup. If you don't know consider the Apple store again for help, but I guess that this situation is a bit difficult for you.

    See if others here have a better idea too, it is better not to act too quickly in situations like this, unless you have copies of the data on another.

  • How can I empty the Windows installation on my hard drive?

    How can I empty the Windows installation on my hard drive, please?  I was going to re - install, then I changed my mind.
    Now, every time that I reboot, instead of launching Windows XP Pro, it try to run Windows installation.  The installation program appears as a second menu item under "Windows XP Pro" on the black screen at launch.

    How can I remove it from the startup screen and flush it out of my system?

    Any correction, automated for this?

    Thank you.

    It is difficult to determine what you did, but the symptoms you describe can be eliminated by editing the boot.ini file (you can also make things really difficult if you make a mistake when you edit the boot.ini file, so be careful).  Will not be "flush out the Windows installation" of your system, but it will stop the menu from appearing at startup time.

    See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/289022

    Your boot.ini file probably has a second line in the [operating systems] section.  Make sure that you delete only the line that points to the installation routine.

  • How can I stop people deleting files other people created in windows 7?

    How can I stop people deleting files other people created in windows 7? I've had this settings in windows XP. a public folder where no one can delete the files that they did not create. only the creator has been able to delete the folder.

    Please notify.

    Thank you!

    You can do almost the same way in Windows 7.  Basically you right click on the folder and choose Properties.  Under Security, you can decide who can and cannot remove the folder (or even see the folder if you wish, to hide from others).

    Just be careful.  I recommend not using the "deny".  Just do not give someone the function "allow."  Denials have priority and I saw where people wrongly denied their own access to the folder, and according to the options chosen, you can't "undo" who am wrong.
