  • Recycle Bin does not update when emptied until the trash window is closed?

    With the help of Windows 8 Pro with Media Center. When I open the trash to view the contents before I empty it and then when ready empty I click the 'Empty Recycle Bin' button in the Ribbon.

    The 'Empty Recycle Bin' gray-out button, but the content is still there?

    When I close the window Recycle Bin desktop icon Recycle Bin shows that it is empty. When I reopen it Recycle Bin is empty.

    There are also opportunities the Office trash opens with a considerable delay (5-15 seconds) after clicking on the icon... and I used to click on the icon again thinking I had... somehow miss-clicked but would get to open after a delay.

    Others have similar problems with the trash?

    Thank you!

    The problem was solved when I upgraded to 8.1 Pro widows.

    When I delete an element, nothing shows up in the Recycle Bin (empty).  When I click on restore, it acts like it will restore the objects but does not work.  Properties are set to use one setting for all drives and the box is not checked to remove automatically when items are sent to the trash.

    Any suggestion would be appreciated.

  • Windows XP Recycle bin gel to the top

    My XP machine went through a period of constant application freezes. I had to manually stop because all GUI functions has been lost, including start them and taskbar.
    Most of the fixed problems got system restore. Now my recycle bin is frozen. I can't empty it. Clicking on it produces only "shortened, cut, paste and delete" options but "empty" option and the remains of the shaded icon. Is there a way to solve this problem without another system restore?

  • My recycling bin icons fail to activate properly / affected by windows mail

    After 2 years works perfectly, my full/empty trash registered only now activate (on my desktop) after that I have enter or exit Windows Mail.

    IBC works normally otherwise. Only the change of icon does not have at the time. I have all of the default settings.

    Added; the bin function is normal. Bin, the bin or empty bin icon status does not change according to the condition of bin.

    If I empty the tray, the icon is complete. Then becomes later empty. (usually when I go into Windows mail)

    Suggested fix has not been set. Thank you

    > my only registered full/empty trash now activate (on my desktop) after I enter or exit Windows Mail

    > Only the icon change does not meet the time

    I'm sorry.

    None of the above 2 phrases doesn't make sense to me.

    > my recycle bin icons fail to activate properly / affected by windows mail

    That tells us it is NOT. And why blame Windows Mail so that it does not?

    If you don't mind, please repost your question in the short, separate sentences?
    Explanation of what it fails to perform is essential.

    If you don't want to do, take a look at these tutorials. See if any of them apply to you.

  • Folder of documents completely empty after emptying the Recycle Bin. Running Windows Vista Edition Home Premium.

    I uploaded several photos from a third party site yesterday. In this process, I make several files which I then recycle once the download is complete. Because I'm uploading about 6 months worth of photos, I decided it would be best to empty the trash when I finished and did. Today, I went to access a Word document, and ALL my files are missing from the Documents folder - it is completely empty. When I try to look for one of the files that I know was in the file, I get a message that says "the point _ that this shortcut refers has been changed or moved, and this shortcut no longer works correctly. You really want to remove this shortcut? "In the research forums, I've seen where this can happen after a trojan/virus. I met said before virus on my laptop, so I know what it looks like at and.

    He should not have deleted the documents folder.  System restore must have worked.

    Protection system had to be turned on in order to 'restore' .  Directions to do are in the link I listed above about the subject.

    Have you tried to uninstall the software with that allows you to export documents?  See if the documents are restored on uninstall.

    In the settings of your third-party software that you see a setting that says keep copy file on the drive even after deleting? If so, you have a copy of the file on the raw disk. See this

    Using Windows 7

    Normally, when I delete files and folders, they are dumped into the trash. This time, I went through most of my files temporary and deleted a whole bunch of folders and files. Surprisingly, my basket is empty. Where the folders and files gone and why?

    Right-click on the Recycle Bin and select Properties.  You will find the parameters that can cause this.

  • Recycle and broken Windows Win7HP bin file manager

    I broke my Win7HP yesterday...

    The Recycle Bin icon is missing. If I open the file manager, I get the indirect approach of the magnifying glass and no results file!

    I'm not exactly sure how, but I think that it is removing a file that is uploaded to skydrive.  Nevertheless, the net effect on my system is a disaster.

    I tried running the FixIt for questions of funds, but he said that he had no problem.  The system is completely up-to-date, and Security Essentials scans clean.

    Need help please,.

    Thank you.

    The man was extreme, if you know what I mean.  I had to pay Microsoft $$ for help.

    In fact, it took two calls and two interventions to clear.  (still not sure exactly what it was).

    What they have determined is that my user profile was irreparably damaged.  It has to be copied to a new profile, and then deleted...

    In the meantime, they scanned rootkit, malware and viruses.  All clear. (at this time I was pretty sure that must have a possibility).

    After the new profile, I had no any problems.  But the passage is very energetic and has taken a lot of time to 'fix' things as they were before.  Try not to do...

    What he started (in my opinion as a Windows power amateur guy), I was uploading documents to the Skydrive, when I removed them from the desktop computer before transfer was complete. There was some kind of conflict, and things were never the same with the file manager and the trash.

    There you go. Thanks for the help Imran M.

  • Windows 8 recycle bin cannot remove blocked file or restore.

    Computer, only a few days now live have this corrupted video file into recycle bin 800 + MB that I can't move cannot empty the bin or restore this file. If I delete for bin of other files, I can delete those of Recycle Bin or restore.

    I tried windows own ABC file ccleaner and various utilities to vacuum bin but nothing doesn't work - I would delete bin itself and restore windows but can't find it again (XP was easy this new computer with Win 8 not sure Win 7 was OK too)
    Help someone
    And its Windows 8 pre release as forum won't let me put it in Windows 8

    Scott, I had this nightmare. Same Win8 restored to an earlier time without success. Right-click on the Recycle Bin icon. The properties will tell you the size is fixed to to your c: / drive. Take note of this. and set it to 1 MB (there is no place for your file in question). When you see that the tray is clear, again no matter what size it was. Check again. Clear them all to go? Boos! D

    Hello

    These 2 files are normal for any installation of Windows.

    $recycle.bin contains data relating to the trash and the System Volume information contains the Restore Points to restore the system on each disk.

    Normally, these folders are hidden by default.

    In file Explorer, click the view tab in the Ribbon toolbar.

    In the Options Menu, select folder and search options.

    In the Folder Options window, select the view tab.

    Select the option do not show hidden files, folders, and drives.

    Click apply/OK.
