Recycle bin information

Is it possible to pay at the basket empties automatically? Mine seems to delete files in a few hours, I can attribute this to allow more time before the files are deleted?

Windows trash does not empty normally automatically.

What is the name and version of your anti-virus program?

What other 'security' or 'tuneup' software is installed?

Do you have any automatic backup running software?  If so, what is it?

    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.

  • 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

  • Recover files that were deleted from the Recycle Bin

    I need to recover a word file that has been deleted from the Recycle Bin.  An easy way to do this?

    It is not really easy, but it may be possible (depending on whether or not the file has been replaced and a number of other factors).

    If you have Vista Business, Vista Ultimate or Vista Enterprise, you can be lucky.  They have so-called saves shadow copies, which are deleted or modified files that can be recovered in case changes/deletions made by mistake.  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/Windows-Vista/features/shadow-copy.aspx more information about how to use this feature to: http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/howdoi/?p=145.

    If you have Vista Basic or Premium of Vista, shadow copies is not available; However, there is an alternative that is free and the shadow copies feature called Shadow Explorer. http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/recover-files-with-shadow-copies-on-any-version-of-windows-vista/.  Although it will not help you this time, it could very well save you in case this happens again.

    In case this does not work (not all files are available through shadow - it occurs periodically), here are some additional free recovery programs that might help:

    Only you can decide if the data is important enough to take the PC to an expert data recovery to recover files (they will have better programs and hardware to do that none of us do, and I've provided above).  Do NOT go to the Geek Squad or one of these centers of store-, they generally don't know what they are doing - it take for expert data recovery.  It will cost you a little and they generally offer no guarantees.  The decision is yours.

  • 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.
