• Deleting the files temporarily in the trash

  I just tried to delete several files temporarily to the TRASH, only to discover that they have been permanently deleted.  This is the case, although I customized the maximum size setting to 6000 MB!

  I have never experienced this problem before and I wonder what happened. I am running Windows Vista on my laptop and Windows XP in a computer lab where we have the same problem.

• file corrupted in the trash

  Charles here, I have a new fx mainboard MSI 760 gm - e51 and installed an updated release of windows 7. I have McAfee total Protection antivirus product. Already have a file corrupted in the trash. Not happy with Mcafee. Any suggestions on a good anti-virus product? Also corrupted file attached to the application of google chrome. I tried to uninstall/features of the program but could not find the path of the windows folder. Google app is detained in \User\AppData\Local\Temp\65B3A9~1\ that is not in my temp folder. There is no Recorder program called iso (pushisher alex freiman) that I don't recognize cannot remove or delete.  Any suggestions to remove the wire corrupted in r/bin. I had to re - install windows again, but when I hit install it says 'Save Temp files' is the last thing I want. Is this normal. Save and delete the temporary files? McAfee says not an infection and was unable to help him.

  Need help, thank you

• Deleting a persistent file located in the trash

  When I empty a file that is located in the trash, I get the following text "the operation cannot be performed because the"XXXXXXT"element is in use."  The question is NOT in use.  How can I get rid of the file?

  This happens usually when something you sent garbage.  Try to leave the Mail app (and all the other apps you have open on your dock).  If this does not work, try to restart the Mac and close applications.  This should break the links between that file and any application uses it.

• Found a number of files .bak to the trash, what are they?

  I found a number of my document files in my 'Recycle Bin', in a folder called .bak. with a number of other records.  I don't want to empty the trash until I understand what these files are and why they are there in the first plase.

• Some accounts have the Recycle Bin instead of the trash icon. Cannot run 'Empty trash' on the record, only on an icon to the trash.

  I have four accounts open TB: mine, woman, club and spam. Only mine and spam account display the Recycle Bin icon. The other two accounts have a folder named "Trash". Deleted files go in the Trash files, is similarly in the trash icon files. However, there is a single action, I can perform on files from the Recycle Bin. When right clicking on folders, "empty trash" is not available as an option. The function is available only on folders with the Recycle Bin icon.
  Is there a way to get the appropriate folder to the trash with function 'empty trash' in all accounts?

  OK - I messed around with the settings more and came across a solution.
  1 right-click on the account name in the left pane, and then select settings.
  2. Select Server settings
  3. in the central block under deletion actions, select Advanced
  4. uncheck the "show only subscribed folders", and then click OK
  5. click OK in the parameters, and then collapse the account name in the left pane so not subfolders appear.
  6 expand the name of the account. This is - the trash is now a garbage can with the function of "empty trash".
  7. If desired, return to the advanced settings and re - select "show only subscribed folders" and click OK

  Don't ask me why this works. It's a total coincidence that I even found it.

• NOT ME NOT LEAVE RESTORE/FOLDER ITEM IN THE TRASH

  I tried to restore some files (images) in the trash and just, it flashes but does nothing.  It also won't let me not cut/copy/paste files anywhere or the other. Help!

  Go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt and right click on command prompt and click Run as administrator.  You do this by using the DOS commands.  Here is an article on the use of DOS commands: http://www.computerhope.com/msdos.htm.

  Navigate to $Recycle Bin (a subdirectory of the C:\ directory) and find the folder you want to restore.  Move it to the desired location (use the DOS commands).  It will now "restored."

  I hope this helps.

• Cannot remove Microsoft Excel files in the trash,

  I encounter a problem that prevents some Microsoft Excel *.xlsx files (and only *.xls, *.xlsx files not or * type of csv file or other) are deleted from my trash. When I try to empty the trash, I received the following dialog box: the operation cannot be completed because the item "filename.xlsx" is in use.

  I confirmed that this problem occurs if Microsoft Excel and other applications of MS Office are running or not, including processes related to the MS in the activity monitor.

  I use a MacBook Air (13-inch, early 2015) running OS X 10.11.4 (15E65) updated through 10.11.3 MAS. I use Microsoft Office 2016 15.20 version (and also have MS Office 2011 on my machine).

  To determine which process is using the file, I ran the following command in a Terminal: lsof | grep 'filename.xlsx '.

  I received the following results:

  QuickLook 607 4r REG 121780 1.4 /Users/username/testfolder/filename.xlsx 11433557 username

  When I check the PID in the activity monitor, the process is still QuickLookSatellite.

  I tried to delete the Finder preferences, reset QuickLook and QuickLook caching by using the command line and I manually deleted User/username/Library/Caches/com.apple.QuickLookDaemon. The problem has persisted through several reboots.

  Here are some messages I receive in the Console:

  04/04/16 9:10:53.663 AM com.apple.xpc.launchd [1]: (com.apple.quicklook [606]) endpoint has been activated through legacy launch (3) API. Please go to XPC or bootstrap_check_in(): com.apple.quicklook

  04/04/16 9:12:01.689 AM quicklookd [606]: error returned by iconservicesagent: (null)

  04/04/16 9:14:56.739 AM quicklookd [606]: error returned by iconservicesagent: (null)

  04/04/16 9:22:59.532 AM com.apple.xpc.launchd [1]: (com.apple.quicklook [676]) endpoint has been activated through legacy launch (3) API. Please go to XPC or bootstrap_check_in(): com.apple.quicklook

  No idea what could be causing this and how do I solve the problem? What is a question of MS Office most likely a bug in the OS? Also, I had downloaded an Excel from a reliable source, but it could be a virus?

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  If Excel or another process has the file in use, it cannot be emptied from the Recycle Bin until it was abandoned. Ensure that the suspicious applications have actually leave or, if that proves elusive, just restart and then empty the trash.

• Empty the Trash: file > empty trash should work in any view, not only the display of the trash

  38.3.0 W8.1, W10
  It is probably an enhancement request...

  Often, I emptied the Recycle Bin. There are 3 things I would like to improve.
  (1) I have to switch to the display of the trash, then on the file menu, select file > empty trash. I should be able to do this from any view.
  (2) the trash is not visibly withdrawn my trash review - I have to move the mouse up and down the display of the trash and then items visibly disappear.
  (3) I would like to be able to put a button in the toolbar to remove all the waste rather than having to go to the file menu.

  I've been using Thunderbird is probably 3 + years old and it has been very reliable, I think it's a good product. Updates work fine.
  Thank you
