• file $rafsykh in the recycling bin seems to be store empty even when items

  Tonight I used windirstat (http://windirstat.info/) to search for large files that I could remove to make more space on my hard drive and found about 7 GB in the trash, even after it had been emptied. The files are in a folder called $rafsykh and contains music files that were there when I emptied a few days ago. If I go into this folder, I can actually play the files, while they in fact seem to be there.

  A few photos

  http://img.Photobucket.com/albums/V302/dankarak/cmdPrompt.jpg
  Basket is empty

  What is $rafsykh, why are the files still there and how I remove them? These files are so that they can be restored?

  It seems that your Recycle Bin is corrupted.

  You can remove it using this procedure: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/131294-recycle-bin-corrupted-cannot-delete-file-folder.html

  The Recycle Bin on Vista, it works that the two files are created: Let's start with R$ and the other with I$ followed by a random string. The I$ file contains metadata that and rhe $R file contains the original data. Eventually the $I file has been deleted, but something stopped deleting the $R file.

  -The 1000 at the end of the SID indicates that these files belong to the first account created on the computer. If it is different from the account that you use to display the Recycle Bin you will not see them. A user only sees the content of the trash that they have created.

• Recycle Bin in Windows Vista is empty but still shows the icon there files it contains?

  Recently, I noticed that my trash wasn't showing it was empty, although there is nothing in the tray. This is also true when there is something in the tray, it will show as empty when I know that there is a file in there. I have run norton security, and I doubt that I have a virus on my system. How can I fix it?

  Hi DdigitalD,

  This behavior can occur if the Recycle Bin is corrupted; I suggest you follow the steps in the link below that relates to a similar question by Gokul T.
