When I try to do a restore on my computer, it says that it is unsuccessful due to my recycle bin is corrupt? Help

I felt it necessary to do a restore on my computer but it is fruitless because my recycle bin is corrupted. How can I fix with doing a reinstall of windows vista

'Restore' as in 'System restore' built into Windows to restore the settings from the registry/return days or the "Restore" method as in OEM (manufacturer) for restoring the computer to the factory settings?

I'll assume former...

If there is ANYTHING you need retsored the trash - can be emptied permanently... You can try this:

1. open an elevated command prompt window. To open a command prompt, click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, right click guestand then click run as administrator.

2. type the following command and press ENTER:

RD /s /q C:\$Recycle.bin
 

(This clears the record $Recycle.bin to the C:\ drive.) You may need to do this for each partition in your system).

3. type exit to close the command prompt window.
